Sometimes, a passion for children’s books – especially creating them – extends through generations of the same family. Take for example Mary Ann Hoberman, an accomplished author of over forty children’s books and many more poems, and her niece Deborah Freedman, an architect who’s first children’s book, Scribble, was published earlier this year.
On this edition of Just One More Book!, Mark speaks with Mary Ann Hoberman and Deborah Freedman about creativity, memory, children’s books and how these two creative women have influenced each other in their work.

PEN essay mentioned: Mary Ann Hoberman, “And Yet…”

Because I listen to Scott Simon every week, I have enjoyed Daniel Pinkwater for a number of years. I have read one of his books outloud to my second grade students and they still bring it up in conversations four months later. I am also reading The Neddiad each week.
Now I have been introduced though Mr. Pinkwater’s site to your lovely site. What a nice resource for teachers. I plan to listen in the morning while I am organizing my day to keep up with new children’s books. Thanks to Mr. Pinkwater for his book joy, and thanks to you for the opportunity to listen and learn.

Nadine!
Thank you so much for joining our community - and for the kind words. We are really pleased that our website and Podcast is becoming such a valued resource.
If you have a favourite children’s book, we’d love to hear about it and include it in our show.
Mark
What a great interview Mark, well done! I, too, have been a fan of Mr. Pinkwater on NPR for a while now and it’s a shame to hear that NPR is not using him as much as they use to. I hate to say this but I think NPR is sliding on a downhill slope into mediocrity. Maybe Mr. Pinkwater should podcast his wonderful stories and essays?!? Now I think I’m going to go raid our local library for Mr. Pinkwater’s books….
Keep up the great work Mark and Andrea!! ;)

Thanks for the great comment, Charles. It was great fun to speak with Daniel Pinkwater. I agree that he should have his own Podcast. He’s a natural.
I worry about the future of public radio (specifically, NPR and CBC) at the hands of funding issues — either lack of increase in funds, or outright cuts in government funding. One can only hope that one day they can benefit from funding models like those that make the BBC great.
