Welcome back to the Book Squad Podcast! Today's episode features a special guest to give you all the scoop on Read Across Lawrence. Listen to the end to hear all about it. You'll also get book recs for times of stress, and you'll get to listen to Kimberly finally master upspeak and Polli give a basic United States history lesson. It's John Wilkes Booth, not James Wilkinson Booth, by the way.
The Book Squad Podcast is recorded in the SOUND+VISION Studio at Lawrence Public Library. A big shout out to Heidi Gluck for composing our jingle, and for Joel Bonner for editing the show.
