Kidlit Love: Conversations with Picture Book, Middle Grade and YA Authors

E15: Marisa Quinn: Happy Hands


Listen Later

Today, I am talking with Marisa Quinn about her debut picture book: Happy Hands. 

It’s a delightfully loveable story about a young boy who is eager to make friends on his first day of Kindergarten, only to find out that his ‘happy hands’ make that more challenging than he thought

It’s a book that reminds us to stay true to who we are, celebrates the power of friendship and even shows us how to learn and grow in the process, too.

You’ll find the show notes for the episode with links to all of the books and resources mentioned right here. 

Join me inside my Facebook community for bookish people! There, we talk about all things books and reading and writing and notebooking, too!
