Talking Larry’s Garden and other things with Canadian Picture Book Blog

October 29, 2020

Putting words on paper–though never easy–is less daunting to me than public speaking. However, I do enjoy chatting about my books with an interested audience.

When Julie from Canadian Picture Book Blog reached out to tell me that she has been sharing What Grew in Larry’s Garden with her students, I was delighted. So when she asked if I would consider doing a short interview about the book, I was more than happy to participate.

Bloggers like Julie are a tremendous support to Canadian writers and illustrators–and she asked particularly good questions! Pondering them prompted me to reflect more deeply about my own writing, which is always a good thing.

Reminiscing about favourite childhood picture books was fun too. You can listen to the interview here: https://canadianpicturebookblog.wordpress.com/2020/10/28/what-grew-in-larrys-garden-interview-with-author-laura-alary/
