Welcome to the very first episode of Book Look! In today’s episode, host Sophie sits down with her brother Harrison to talk about It Happened on Saturday by Sydney Dunlap.

Harrison breaks down the story of 13-year-old Julia, who faces the challenges of growing up, losing friends, and being tricked online by someone she thought she could trust. He explains why the book is realistic fiction, walks us through the setting in Liberty Creek, and introduces the main characters. Together, Sophie and Harrison discuss the five big plot points—including Julia’s conflict and how she finds the courage to heal and warn others.

You’ll also hear Harrison’s honest opinion on the book—why it was scary, why it mattered, and why he thinks kids should know about internet safety. If you’ve ever had to do a book report, this episode will help you see how to think through genre, setting, characters, and theme while keeping it fun and conversational.

Stay tuned until the end for a surprise fake sponsor message that only siblings could come up with!
