“I love listening to The Yarn… Travis’ and Colby’s voices are so easy to listen to as I go for my daily walk - and their gentle banter is fabulous!
The only problem is I spend too much time looking up the books on my phone as I walk and I am going to break an ankle one day as I fall off a pavement!”

“As a teacher-librarian The Yarn deepens my love for kidlit. I feel like I learn so much more about the books themselves, their authors and illustrators. Listen to this podcast - @StacyFord77”
