If you’ve got teens (or kids who will be teens before you know it), this episode is for you.
We’re talking about books for teens, and why the YA/teen section of your library or bookstore is not a reading level.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
- what YA is and what it isn’t
- a few issues with YA/teen books
- whether it’s essential for teens to read YA on the way to adulthood
Of course, I’m also going to recommend some books… because that’s what we do best around here!
