Welcome to the YA and Children's Book Podcast (for Adults)! Our show is hosted by two book enthusiasts: a writer (Sarah Hansen) and a teacher (Terri La Rue). Together, we are rereading and discussing the books that shaped us. If you’ve ever wondered which Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants character you are, why horse girls get so many books written about them, or how Stuart Little's human mother gave birth to a mouse, then this is the show for you. Join us as we relive childhood, one book at a time. New episodes every other week!

Lewis Carroll’s 1865 novel is one of the most famous stories in English literature. But what is it, exactly, about this book that holds such enduring cultural appeal? Join us for a winding romp through Alice’s absurd dreamland. We explore the book’s relationship to humor, music, counterculture, and film. We also discuss the real-life Alice who inspired the book, as well as the continuing debate about Carroll’s personal life and his unusual relationships with children.
Content warning: This episode discusses Carroll’s relationships with children, including his suspected pedophilia.
