Fuse 8 n' Kate

Episode 6 - Mufaro's Beautiful Daughters- An African Tale - 8:6:17, 10.49 PM


Listen Later

Lest you start believing that all children's book classics were penned by white people, Kate and Betsy delve deep into one of John Steptoe's best works. They consider some of the more problematic messages of the book today, its groundbreaking nature, the history of Steptoe, the most recent Caldecott Award winner (and its connection), and a lot more.
And yes. Kate has some weird affection for the last page of every book she sees. Every. Single. One.
