Kidlit Love: Conversations with Picture Book & Middle Grade Authors

E169: Friendship Meets Horror: LET’S SPLIT UP by Bill Wood


Listen Later

On this episode of the KidLit Love podcast, I’m talking with Bill Wood about his debut young adult novel: LET’S SPLIT UP.

This electrifying tale of four friends determined to hunt the killer ravaging their idyllic small town will have you on the edge of your seat. And if that is not your cup of team, don’t worry, there’s something for everyone here including a deep story of friendship and even a bit of romance, too.

Come listen as we talk about Bill’s journey through children’s literature, the elements of his childhood the book pays homage to, what’s coming next in the series and what his hope is for readers no matter where they reside on the globe.
