Madeline L’Engle once said in an interview “You have to write the book that wants to be written. And if the book will be too difficult for grown-ups, then you write it for children.” I can’t think of a better way to describe Jen Petro-Roy’s books. She’s the author of the books PS I MISS YOU, GOOD ENOUGH, and her brand new release LIFE IN THE BALANCE.
We actually talk a lot about balance in this episode. Balancing honesty and humor. Adult problems in a children’s book. Creativity and quarantine. And one thing that is abundantly clear is that Jen’s a student of children’s literature. Before her life as a writer, she was a librarian, and her love and respect for her young audience shows in her work.
