Ad-free for ALL Super Stars this week! Thank you for your ongoing support of Sorta Awesome!
Many of us know the thrills and joys of reading, and it’s natural for us to want that love of reading to rub off on the kids in our lives. But not all kids are enthusiastic readers - especially when there are so many screens and things competing for their attention. This week, Meg is joined by her longtime friend and children’s librarian Emily Jones who has some compassionate, thoughtful, and encouraging advice for anyone who wants to encourage reluctant readers. She also brought a ton of suggestions to get even the most skeptical of readers excited to dive in! Plus the cutest sneakers, delicious chocolate, and riveting journalism in Awesome of the Week!
Want to join Meg and Rebekah in the 22 Tropes in 2022 Romance Reading Challenge?! Come join the Super Star Awesomes and get the reading challenge plus hundreds of hours of ad-free episodes you can binge-listen to right now. PLUS! Get full access to texting privileges with Meg and the Sorta Awesome team!
