Paul's Positive Podcast

Welcome to Paul's Positive Podcast!

In today's heartwarming segment, Amy Iverson shares the delightful fusion of Indigenous culture and children's literature through the eyes of author Laurel Goodluck. Her latest picture book, "Too Much," introduces us to Russell, a lovable Native boy experiencing the vibrant life of family gatherings, and the comforting sense of kinship that they bring.

 

With Laurel Goodluck's own heritage as a Mandan, Hidatsa, and Tsimshian contributing to her rich narrative, and the stunning visuals by Anishinaabe artist Bridget George, this episode emphasizes the crucial role of Indigenous stories in the landscape of children's literature. The tales of "Fierce Aunties" and "Yáadilá!" also promise to continue this important legacy and the celebration of culture.

 

The podcast isn't just about books, though. Amy also introduces you to the tale of love and family with Sam Mac's engagement to his now fiancée, Rebecca James. Their beautiful journey underscores the significance of family, personal growth, and the love they have for each other, marking a new chapter with the birth of their daughter Margot.

 

Join us as we dive into these stories that serve as foundations for empathy, dreams, and a shared human experience, aiming to contribute to a world filled with more inclusivity and positivity. This is Paul's Positive Podcast, where every episode is an exclusive narrative spun just for you, Paul, celebrating the radiant power of joy and human connection.
