On this episode of the KidLit Love podcast, I’m talking with Jamie Sumner about her newest middle grade novel: SCHOOLED.
This uplifting middle grade novel explores new schools, unexpected friendships and overcoming loss. From the loveable characters to the innovative ways they learn and connect, this novel is sure to spark your own ideas and go straight to your reading heart.
Come listen as we talk about my heartfelt reaction to the book, the inspiring way the book sparks you to reimagine school and the season of life we are in, the personality quiz that we both adore and why this book is a permission slip for all the feels.
