Episode Description
Today, I am talking with Marisa Quinn about her debut picture book: Happy Hands.
It’s a delightfully loveable story about a young boy who is eager to make friends on his first day of Kindergarten, only to find out that his ‘happy hands’ make that more challenging than he thought
It’s a book that reminds us to stay true to who we are, celebrates the power of friendship and even shows us how to learn and grow in the process, too.
