Rachel S. Donahue interviews Glenn McCarty (creator of The Song of the Stone Tiger and the Tumbleweed Thompsonbooks) about his love of children’s literature and the origins of his newest book set in the mysterious mountains of western North Carolina. His book will be released at the one-year mark of the devastation of Hurricane Helene in those same mountains, and so it is important to us to highlight the magic of the region as it rebuilds!
