One Last Look Back: Our 2024 Recap on The Yarn Podcast

On the last day of 2024, Colby Sharp and I got on a call to look back at the year in children’s literature. This episode of The Yarn podcast is always one of my favorites (and not just because I get a chance to talk about things like The Great British Baking Show).
We talk about our favorite books of the year, Newbery and Caldecott favorites, the best reviewed books of 2024, and a whole lot more.
