In this episode of the KidLit Love podcast, I’m talking with Violet Duncan.

Violet is the author of multiple picture books, including I am Native,  When We Dance and Let’s Hoop Dance. Today, she’s talking with us about her newest middle grade novel: Buffalo Dreamer. 

This book is all the things: powerful and emotional, eye-opening and heart-opening, unsettling yet hopeful. It’s a story that begs to be read by all. 

Today, we talk about the inspiration behind her writing, the themes you’ll find inside the book and her hopes for readers.

Here are the books mentioned in this episode. You’ll find links to my Amazon and Bookshop affiliate stores below. Thanks for your bookish support!
