On this episode of the KidLit Love podcast, I’m talking with Emily Winfield Martin about her newest picture book: THE WILDEST THING.

This stunning picture book invites readers to listen to our own inner voices that long for us to be brave and bold. Combining words with lush, full-color illustrations, this book is a feast for both the eyes and the heart.

Come listen as we talk about Emily’s accidental beginnings and the pictures that were missing their story, the beautiful analogy she uses for the continuous revisions of a picture book and the very real, very wild inspiration for the book we’re talking about today.

Here is the book featured in this episode. You’ll find links to my Amazon and Bookshop affiliate stores below. Thanks for your bookish support!
