The Stories We Tell

[Spencer Hale]

Two books that impacted me a child are Little Gorilla by Ruth Bornstein
and Mouse Tales by Arnold Lobel

I can see how they visually influence my art today, and this podcast has made me think about the way the stories have had an impact as well.

Thank you for such a helpful and entertaining podcast!

I personally think the I POOP YOU BOOK would be a fun read. I have a neice and the books we both like are the ones that make us laugh a lot.

I want the poop book too!

[Joen Söderholm]

@marsha-kay-ottum-owen Glad to hear that! Hope he'll enjoy it. Which one did you find?

[Nyrryl Cadiz]

@nessillustration haha don’ t we all

[Annie Barnett]

@debra-garcia I second that, @Will-Terry! I told my kids about it and they thought "I Poop You" sounded amazing!

Well-loved books from my youth - "The Simple Prince" by Jane Yolen, and "A Bag Full of Nothing" by Jay Williams. In having to remember the titles of these two books, I've found they are available on Amazon. Might have to buy them for nostalgia's sake...

@joen-söderholm When Findus Was Little and Disappeared. I haven't read it myself, of course, but I hope to read it with him someday! Did I pick a good one?

[Joen Söderholm]

@marsha-kay-ottum-owen ah, nice! That one didn't come until I was already a teenager, but I have it here at home anyway. It's a great choice. A very touching origin kind of story for the characters (and you don't need to have read the previous books to understand the story).

@joen-söderholm Oh good! Thanks! He's part swedish too so , he can get a little taste of his heritage
