Books on Film: Watch Jason Reynolds on The Today Show

This blog is basically just a “Hey, Jason Reynolds is on national TV again” alert system at this point. The guy has been everywhere lately, including this recent stop on The Today Show to talk about the second book in his Stuntboy series with Raul the Third.
In this video, Reynolds discusses Stuntboy, and also shares his thoughts on Literature vs. Literacy, book bans, and what superpower he’d want to have (it’s unexpected and perfect).
