Today's guest children's book author Kathleen Krull passed away on January 15 following a brief illness. We recorded this talk on January 13. Here is her publisher's weekly obituary: <a href= "https://www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/childrens/childrens-authors/article/85350-obituary-kathleen-krull.html"> https://www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/childrens/childrens-authors/article/85350-obituary-kathleen-krull.html</a> Today's show also includes a picturebooking message by author Hilary Robinson. In the interview, Kathleen shares her passion for finding and sharing the stories of people who deserve attention but whom society has overlooked. And today's featured book Walking toward Peace: The True Story of a Brave Woman Called Peace Pilgrim, fits this mission perfectly.  Books featured on the show this winter: <a class="editor-rtfLink" href= "https://bookshop.org/lists/winter-2021-picturebooking-list" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://bookshop.org/lists/winter-2021-picturebooking-list</a> Become an email subscriber to enter the monthly book giveaway: <a class="editor-rtfLink" href="https://picturebooking.com/email" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">https://picturebooking.com/email</a>
