E18: Celebrate Middle Grade March with Afoma Umesi


Listen Later

Happy Middle Grade March! Today, I’m celebrating Middle Grade March with a special guest: Afoma Umesi.

Afoma embraces all things middle grade reading and hosts my FAVORITE middile grade blog of all time: Reading Middle Grade.

Today, she joins us to share her story: how middle grade reading became her passion, favorite books she thinks we need to add to our TBR stacks and opportunities to connect with other middle grade readers, 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! You'll get updates for this podcast, along with my other Get Lit(erate). podcast and build your literate community for adult and children's literature. ⁠Join here!⁠
