How to 'Empower' Kid LIt: Kyo Maclear & David A. Robertson

Hosted by Elizabeth Withey

There is nothing as powerful as a young mind engaging with a picture book. Here’s how to take that experience to the next level, with insights from  the exquisitely versatile Kyo Maclear (Julia, Child; Bloom; The Big Bath House) and two-time Governor General’s Literary Award winner David A. Robertson (When We Were Alone and On the Trapline), who is also the editorial director of a new Indigenous-focused children’s imprint at Tundra Books.
