Read Like The Wind: Books Our Teachers Read Aloud

Do you remember the books your teachers read to the whole class? In the 70s and 80s, we were introduced to some of the best children's literature of all time through our teachers, usually after recess and often sitting on the rug at their feet. And almost all of those books are still available and even popular today -- proving that, yes, Gen X just might be the best generation of all. Which book was inspired by Judy Blume's babysitter? Which book made Carolyn love crickets? And which book did Michelle have to skim because it's just too damn sad? Join us for a very personal conversation about how these books affected us all. Then dust off your library card because we guarantee you'll want to revisit these gems for some nostalgic bibliotherapy.Follow PCPS on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter and TikTokSupport the Pop Culture Preservation Society on Patreon.
