Episode Synopsis

Welcome to season THREE! This week on the podcast, I am joined by Jen Barton to discuss The King Who Rained by Fred Gwynne. Jen Barton is a goofball masquerading as an adult. She is also the award-winning author of seven books for kids. She loves reading, cooking, gardening, and hopes to someday meet a dragon during a long walk in the woods. She started writing after the world’s most boring day in the car, a harrowing experience survived only by telling stories with the kids. Just a short girl with a tall imagination, Jen lives in Pennsylvania with her husband and spends much of her time thinking ofsilly things to amuse children.Relevant links:Follow Jen on Facebook, Twitter, buy Forest BathAbout the show:You can find all of the books from Turning Back the Pageson Bookshop.org.Follow ⁠Ally⁠ on ⁠Instagram⁠ or ⁠Twitter/X⁠Thank you to ⁠Juqboxmusic⁠and ⁠zXennial_Music⁠for the show music
