Mike and Pete have a perfectly pleasing podcast this week with Kalley Petito, first grade teacher at Saint Margaret’s Elementary School in Woodbury Heights, and author of the new children’s book “Mr. Petito and the Punks,” which teaches kindness through rhyming and alliteration. Mrs. Petito shares the journey of her book, which was first composed 25 years ago on a word processor and is now available on websites like Barnes and Noble & Amazon; her creative inspirations; her unique way of making greeting cards for loved ones; and how her family played an important part in the story.
