On this episode of the KidLit Love podcast, I’m talking with Rio Cortez and Lauren Semmer about their newest picture book together: The ABCs of Women’s History.

This book is a beautiful, powerful celebration of women…their history and their future… and centers on the diversity of the disruptors who blazed a path forward for everyone.

Come listen as we talk about their recent journeys into children’s literature, the process of how they chose to bring this important topic to life and their 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!
