About this episode
It's #middlegradeMarch and so, of course, Meredith is excited to be talking to Ben Guterson, the author of the Winterhouse Trilogy of middle-grade novels. These are some of our favorite books of the year. In this bonus mini episode, or "minisode", Ben talks about his inspiration for the novels, what's coming up in the third book, as well as a bit about his own life as a reader. And, he gives us a book he wants to "press" into every reader's hands, too. Here are the books we mention in this episode: Winterhouse by Ben Guterson The Secrets of Winterhouse by Ben Guterson Anne of Green Gables by LM Montgomery The Adventures of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain Treasure Island by Robert Lewis Stevenson T he House with the Clock in Its Walls by John Bellairs James and the Giant Peach by Roald Dahl Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl The Phantom Tollbooth by Norton Juster The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe by C.S.
