 Growing up is an experience of small wonders and worries. It is in the smallest slices of everyday life that we get to encounter the big feelings that hide in quiet moments. Our favorite books are filled with characters that compel us to reflect on our early experiences and recognize the profound influence of the teachers who shaped us. In this episode, we explore the extraordinary aspects of ordinary life through the rhythmic cadence of Kevin Henkes’ The Year of Billy Miller and the illustrated storytelling in Lynne Rae Perkins’ At Home in a Far Away Place.
