Inspiring the Next Generation of Nature Lovers and Paranormal Investigators

Aug 15, 2024

In this episode of the Reading with Your Kids podcast, host Jed Doherty has an engaging conversation with two very different guests - children's author Diana Renn and author Kevin M Hall.
First, Jed speaks with Diana Renn about her "Backyard Rangers" eco-mystery series, which follows a group of young wildlife detectives investigating environmental crimes in their community. Diana shares how her own experiences living near nature spots like Walden Pond inspired the books, which aim to spark kids' curiosity about the natural world. She offers tips for parents on helping urban kids connect with the outdoors, even in small ways.
Later, Jed welcomes author Kevin M Hall, whose new book "Signs" explores paranormal and unexplained phenomena. Kevin recounts a personal story about a mysterious earring that reappeared in an unexpected place, which prompted him to start researching and documenting similar uncanny experiences. 
Throughout the conversation, Kevin delves into the historical and cultural significance of signs, symbols and omens, drawing from diverse traditions like Egyptian, Druid and Native American beliefs. He also interviews people who have had their own supernatural encounters, including a movie star who had a miraculous experience piloting a plane.
Whether discussing children's literature or the paranormal, both guests share a passion for uncovering the extraordinary within the ordinary. Jed is clearly fascinated by the wide range of topics covered, from eco-mysteries to unexplained occurrences, reflecting the podcast's broad appeal to curious listeners of all ages.
Overall, this episode of Reading with Your Kids offers an engaging and thought-provoking exploration of the wonders - both natural and supernatural - that exist all around us.
