Listen "Sometimes You Have to Lie"
Episode Synopsis
'Ole Golly says there is as many ways to live as there are people on the earth'. So says Harriet in "Harriet the Spy", the brainchild of author Louise Fitzhugh. Today we dive in deeper with one of literature's most beloved 'quirky' kids, with a discussion of how Harriet and Louise broke the mold of children's literature. Guest host Dr Perri Klass speaks with Leslie Brody, author of the highly acclaimed new biography "Sometimes You Have to Lie: The Life and Times of Louise Fitzhugh, Renegade Author of Harriet the Spy".
