Dear Book of Life Listeners, For the last month, we've had a special series on The Book of Life Podcast, called "Books in the Time of Coronavirus." Authors whose spring 2020 promotional events were cancelled were able to tell the world about their new Jewish books.
In May we will be returning to our regular schedule of longer, in-depth interviews about Jewish kidlit. While you wait for our interview with Gail Carson Levine (!) you can binge-listen the ten short episodes in the Coronavirus series. There's a little something for everyone - fiction and nonfiction, poetry and short stories, kids' books and adult books. If you'd like to buy your own copies of these books, please visit The Book of Life's affiliate page supporting independent booksellers at https://bookshop.org/lists/books-featured-on-the-podcast LISTEN AND ENJOY! 1.
