Description

Manuary is over and the ladies are back! On Episode 82, Alli welcomes Christie and Izzy from the From Where She Sits podcast for a conversation about Erich Kästner’s The Parent Trap, the little-known German children’s book that inspired the blockbuster 1998 movie. The book is nothing like the sparkly summer camp movie you might remember, though!Tune in to hear Alli, Christie, and Izzy chat about the darker elements of this book — neglectful parents, infidelity, and an unreasonable expectation that children should be responsible for adults’ relationship issues. They also chat about the story’s sexist presentation of parenting and working moms. Check out Christie and Izzy’s podcast From Where She Sits!

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!
