    Hair-Raising Fun with with Teen Author, Sophia Namazy, and Mom, Jennifer Namazy

    Hair-Raising Fun with with Teen Author, Sophia Namazy, and Mom, Jennifer Namazy

    Every child knows the tickle of a fairy's wing or the tug of a stubborn ponytail, but what happens when these everyday moments transform into tales of empathy and courage? Join me as I sit down with the inspiring mother-daughter team, Jennifer and Sophia Namazy, to unravel their whimsical world in "Pigtails, Ponytails, and Fairy Tales." Their latest adventure, "Hair Emergency," doesn't just entertain with mishaps and fairy magic—it's a heartfelt call to action against bullying, a celebration of friendships, and a guide to moral choices that resonate with our youngest generation. And there's a bonus—a portion of their book's proceeds helps in the fight against Schwachmann Diamond Syndrome, proving that these stories truly have the power to change lives beyond the page.

    As we pull back the curtain on the Namazy's creative process, we're reminded that every author's journey begins with a single word and a leap of faith. Sophia, a teen author herself, shares her invaluable insights for budding writers, lighting the way for others to follow in her literary footsteps. There's something magical about a young voice echoing through the chapters of a book, especially when it's emboldened by the support of programs like 826 National and 916 Ink. So, if you're looking to remember the spark that stories ignited in your childhood or seeking to fan the flames of a young writer's dreams, this conversation with Jennifer and Sophia Namazy is a treasure trove of motivation, laughter, and a little sprinkle of fairy dust.

    Teaching with Comics with Jason DeHart

    Teaching with Comics with Jason DeHart

    Embark on an enlightening odyssey into the transformative world of graphic novels with our distinguished guest, Jason DeHart. With a PhD in Literacy under his belt, Jason unpacks the potent blend of critical literacy and empathy in his latest book, "Building Critical Literacy and Empathy with Graphic Novels." Our conversation whirls around the magic of storytelling, why your next favorite book might just be a graphic novel, and Jason's personal endeavors as a podcaster blending his love for coffee and literature on "Words, Images, and Worlds."

Jason and I dissect the unique ways in which comics and graphic novels stitch together words and images to create compelling stories that resonate across ages.

    As we wrap up, we tackle the less spoken-about aspects of the creative journey, like the menacing specter of imposter syndrome and the ecstasies of the writing process. Jason candidly shares his strategies for channeling self-doubt into passion-fueled writing and offers nuggets of wisdom for aspiring authors. Whether you're a teacher, a parent, or simply a lover of a good story, this episode promises to enrich your understanding of storytelling's place in education, culture, and beyond.
