But control is slippery; one moment, it can steady us, the next, it slips away. Brian Selznick—#1 New York Times bestselling author, illustrator, and Calde...

Fuse 8 n' KateEpisode 350 - When Marian SangJust in time for Black History Month we're tackling a number of firsts on our podcast. Our first Pam Muñoz Ryan book. Our first Brian Selznick book. And while this isn't our first picture book biography, we've done relatively few over the years. Old nonfiction picture books age so poorly sometimes but this title had some incredible backmatter, even by 2025 standards. We discuss how this book has "sepia with depth" yet somehow manages not to be boring looking, and how we'd love to be remembered as "fierce but famous."

Today, let’s dig into that a little bit: how do the illustrations in Kaleidoscope in particular impact the way we take in its stories?

HISTORY This WeekWalt Whitman's First Fan MailJuly 21, 1855. Literary lion Ralph Waldo Emerson writes a letter to an unknown Brooklyn journalist named Walt Whitman. He’s just read Whitman’s first published poems, which have both startled him and caused him to rejoice. Emerson congratulates the poet on having produced “the most extraordinary piece of wit & wisdom that America has yet contributed.” So why, just five years later, will Emerson be urging him to delete the “scandalous” passages from a new edition of the poems? And how did Walt Whitman’s exuberant sensuality help recast America’s relationship to the body?Special thanks t...

‘Subliem, warm, wijs en ontroerend’, ‘een meesterwerk’, ‘spectaculair’: nog voor het boek de Woutertje Pieterse Prijs 2021 won, werd het al bedolven onder de superlatieven. 'Hele verhalen voor een halve soldaat' (Querido 12+), dat de voorgeschiedenis vertelt van 'Hoe Tortot zijn vissenhart verloor', staat centraal in de 43ste aflevering van De Grote Vriendelijke Podcast. Kinderboekrecensenten Jaap Friso (JaapLeest) en Bas Maliepaard (Trouw) praten met schrijver Benny Lindelauf over de totstandkoming van het boek. Over hoe hij de ellende van de wereld verwerkt door te schrijven, over de collectieve bron van oude sprookjes en verhalen, over een schatkist vol geluiden, muzikale taal, de kla...

Soundtracking with Edith BowmanDirector Todd Haynes On The Music Of Wonderstruck, I'm Not There, Carol & Far From HeavenThis week's episode has been a long-time coming. We reckon Edith spoke to director Todd Haynes just before Christmas - after his latest film Wonderstruck received a 3 minute standing ovation at last year's Cannes film festival - and we've been desperate to share our chat ever since.
Well, the moment has come, as Wonderstruck finally gets an official UK release - though you may already have been lucky enough to see it on Amazon.
Based on the bestselling novel by Brian Selznick, who also wrote the screenplay, Wonderstruck intertwines two stories set 50 years apart about c...

Behind The LensBEHIND THE LENS #140: Featuring David BurkmanIt's another exciting BEHIND THE LENS this week as we welcome writer/director DAVID BURKMAN, plus, hear film critic debbie elias' exclusive interview with cinematographer ED LACHMAN.
In his first feature outing, DAVID BURKMAN tackles the Greek system of the college world with HAZE. A "fictional" work structured much like the story of Dionysus in "The Bacchae" by Euripedes, Burkman's approach is hard-charging and at times no-holds-barred shocking but at the same time eye-opening on issues that face us not only on the college campus but within human nature. Filmmakers will appreciate hearing about the logistic challenges David faced as...

ABC GothamQueens Museum Panorama: Special Micro-Episode!
The Queens Museum of Art, in Flushing Meadows Corona Park, has the coolest thing you've never seen: The Panorama of the City of New York. It's a model of the whole damn city-- all 5 boroughs. It contains every building in the city built before 1992 (the year it was last updated). It was built by (who else?) Robert Moses for the 1964-1965 World's Fair. It took 3 years to create, has over 895,000 structures, and had a margin of error less than 1%. Kate and Kathleen tell you all about it in this special micro-episode. It is definitely worth the long subway ride to see it.
