Join Katie and Scott this week as they discuss Clap When You Land by award-winning author Elizabeth Acevedo in an episode that discusses building empathy through tragedy. Acevedo’s story follows two girls who discover each other’s existence through the tragic loss of their shared father. Katie and Scott discuss the major themes of this book, their personal connections on the topics of loss and family, and give a glimpse into why this book of verse would be a great pick for reluctant middle school readers.
