Loren Long (@lorenlong), author illustrator most recently of Little Tree, published by Philomel Books (@PhilomelBooks), stops by to talk about a simple story about a simple tree, finding a safe harbor in picture books, and letting go.
Wow, such a profound conversation. Was moved to hear about the woman listening in to your story, Loren, and the impact it can have on all ages. Stories may be perceived differently by children and adults, but the core feelings can remain the same. It helped me to think about a story I'm creating that I wasn't sure children would understand, but now I have some ideas to tweak it so it can satisfy both audiences. Once again, I'm so glad this podcast exists!
