The Thalia Kids' Book Club series is a wonderful companion to dozens of kid-lit classics. In this episode, Gary Schmidt, author of The Wednesday Wars, discusses his own childhood and also presents the audience with a great creative-writing prompt. Featuring the ever-relatable narration of Khris Lewin, Thalia Kids' Book Club features performances by professional actors as well. This series is wonderful for any young person or parent who loves to read and wants to be a part of a great conversation!
