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

E42: The Amazing Power of Girls with Maria Marianayagam


Listen Later

In this episode, I’m talking with Maria Marianayagam. She’s the author of The Amazing Power of Girls, an absolutely brilliant, lyrical and inspiring book.

Come listen as we talk about the fact that we are all made up of multitudes…and the intersection of them all is where she writes. Maria will share her journey to writing, the philosophy she embodies and we’ll take a deep dive into her newest picture book. We’ll also explore her series of board books for toddlers and get a sneak peek into her newest writing projects coming soon.

You’ll find the show notes for the episode with links to all of the books and resources mentioned right here: https://www.alitlife.com/2024/07/12/the-amazing-power-of-girls-with-maria-marianayagam/
