Here at Story of the Book, we've been taking an unplanned hiatus. (Sorry to have disappeared on you all!) BUT we have an incredible bonus episode for you today with Katherine Locke, author of WHAT ARE YOUR WORDS?: A BOOK ABOUT PRONOUNS. If you've ever wanted to write a picture book, Katherine shares so much wisdom in this interview about creating picture books that really shine. We adored this book and conversation, and we hope you will, too!
Katherine Locke lives and writes in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania with their feline overlords and their addiction to chai lattes. They are the author of the critically-acclaimed This Rebel Heart, The Girl with the Red Balloon, a 2018 Sydney Taylor Honor Book and 2018 Carolyn W. Field Honor Book, as well as The Spy with the Red Balloon.
