Episode Description

I joke with my priest that I write "Theologically Plausible" ghosts. On this episode of This Catholic Family, we explore the occult in children's books, and what we, as parents, can do to prepare our kids when they encounter these kinds of things in stories. I share why I choose to write book for kids that are sometimes scary, in response to this trend.
