Hi SweetSmarties, this month I got to interview my local children's librarian! I've loved libraries and wanted to interview a librarian, specifically one focused on children's literacy, for a long time! Fun fact about me: I currently have 8 active library cards just for different districts around Southern California. 🤓

We talk about his background and path to this work, what he loves about his job, why he chose this, what it means to him, his approach to nurturing the wonderful children in our community as well as his own at home, and his perspective on other profound topics I'm excited for you to hear! I of course shared my own experiences and philosophies, including referencing a few past episodes, which was nice for me to be able to do. This is my 15th interview, and I'm hoping to do 30, so if I fulfill that plan, I'm halfway there now! 🎉

I hope you enjoy listening to us learn, share, and bond with each other! We'd had brief interactions since I first published this project, but this was our first long, deep conversation. I had a fantastic time, and I hope you benefit a lot from our discussion! 📚

I look forward to connecting further as we continue this journey together. 💖

Genuinely,

T.J. Campbell
