Hey there, fellow book lovers! If you're looking for some fun and engaging reads for the kiddos, you're in the right place. The Reading with Your Kids podcast just had a blast chatting with two awesome authors - Steven Joseph and Meira Rosenberg.
First up, we welcomed back Steven Joseph to talk about the latest book in his Snoodle series, "Snoodles in Space Escape from Zultraz." This wacky and imaginative series follows the adventures of Herbie Snoodleman and his trusty Snoodle vehicle, which runs on noodles instead of gas. In the new book, the Snoodle-verse gets even crazier as the kids try to save the day. 
Steven shared the hilarious process of coming up with all the punny character names and zany plot points. He's a master at taking the ridiculous and making it totally believable. No wonder kids (and adults!) love getting lost in the Snoodle world.
Next, we caught up with Meira Rosenberg to discuss her two middle-grade novels, "28 Days of Neon" and "Indiana Bamboo." These stories tackle some heavy topics like death and loss, but with a healthy dose of humor and heart. 
In "28 Days of Neon," a 12-year-old girl thinks she only has 28 days left to live, so she sets out to do good deeds and earn a miracle. And in "Indiana Bamboo," an 11-year-old sleuth teams up with her friends to solve a mystery involving stolen exotic animals. Meira's books are perfect for sparking conversations and helping kids navigate tough emotions.
Both Steven and Meira shared the joys and challenges of writing for Kids and families. They love visiting schools and seeing kids' reactions to their stories - the unexpected laughter, the insightful questions, and the pure magic of connecting through literature.
So if you're looking to add some new favorites to your family's reading list, be sure to check out the Snoodle series and Meira Rosenberg's novels. Happy reading, everyone!
