About this listen

Zibby chats with New York Times bestselling author Marie Benedict and Courtney Sheinmel about THE SECRETS OF LOVELACE ACADEMY, a charming middle-grade novel about a young girl who is plucked from a London orphanage to attend a prestigious boarding school. The duo (set up by their literary agent) describe how they collaborated on this historical adventure where bright girls gain access to the elite education previously reserved for boys, inspired by Mileva Einstein, Albert Einstein’s brilliant but overlooked first wife. They delve into themes of gender equity, lost histories, and how far we’ve come—and haven’t—when it comes to opportunities for women and girls. They also share how they developed a unified voice and hint at future books in the series!
