Hop on over to Writing with a Broken Tusk to see what author Rukhsana Khan had to tell Uma Krishnaswami in an interview about her new book Wanting Mor. Read a review of Wanting Mor in our recent update…
Thanks to Writing with a Broken Tusk for pointing the way to this interview with writer Vaunda Micheaux Nelson, part of the Brown Bookshelf’s 28 Days Later celebrations of children’s literature for Black History Month.
28 Days Later is nearly over for this year but you can still catch the last couple of writers hot off their bounce into the Kidslitosphere – and continue to enjoy the fruits of The Brown Bookshelf’s labor of love until next year (you are going to do it again next year, aren’t you?)… So check out the other 27 writers and illustrators highlighted. Click on the poster to see who they are and follow the links to read their interviews…
