In today’s episode, I’m thrilled to chat with the beloved author, Robin Jones Gunn. Robin’s storytelling journey began as early as first grade when her teacher noted her knack for entertaining the class with her stories. Though math may not have been her strong suit, Robin’s gift for storytelling shone through, and it was her husband who encouraged her gift of storytelling. Since then, Robin has published a range of works, including devotions, articles, interviews, and 15 children’s books, eventually growing her collection to over 100 books! Her latest release, Tea with Elephants, just hit the shelves last month.

Highlights:

• Robin's early storytelling days.
• The inspiring story behind her journey into writing and the creation of Tea with Elephants.
• Embracing travel as a family and how it has enriched her perspective and storytelling.
• The unique impact of listening to poetry on audio and how it brings out new layers in the experience. Her book flight includes a few of her favorite books.
