Description

There’s nothing quite like a simple, solid friendship story to really bring you back to what it felt like to be a kid, and that’s exactly what you get in Judy Blume’s Just as Long as We’re Together. On Episode 68, author Caroline Moss joins Alli to discuss this title (which just so happens to be one of her childhood favorites!), as well as what it says to kid readers about friendship, family, weight, and body image. Is three really a crowd? Can you have more than one best friend? Is it cool for tweens to be totally self-absorbed? How should we talk to kids about emotional eating? It’s all covered in this episode!Caroline Moss is a Brooklyn-based writer whose work has appeared in the New York Times, New York magazine, Cosmopolitan, VICE, and more. She’s the co-author of Hey Ladies! and the author of the Work It, Girl series. Follow her on Twitter (@CarolineMoss).

Each week, freelance writer and lifelong bookworm Alli Hoff Kosik will challenge a guest to reread a literary throwback or to experience for the first time ever a book they may have missed as a kid. After that, they'll be asked to spill all the feels and all the opinions about that book on the air for your podcast-listening pleasure. Every Tuesday, you can find us breaking down an old school read from our tween and teen days on a new episode of the show. We'll cover everything from The Baby-Sitters Club to Holes, Nancy Drew to Harry Potter. This time around, we're a little wiser (yay!), a lot older (ugh.), and of legal age to drink wine... so we'll have a lot to say. Happy Reading!
