WITH:

Nick Balaban (Blues Clues / Rho & the Nomads)
Anthony Sertel Dean (Glass Attic Collective / Vandals)
Bob Laine (The Books of the Bobul / It’s Getting Tired Mildred) with Timothy McCown Reynolds and Jeff Lewonczyk
Connor Kalista (The Neo-Futurists)
Shayna Lawson (So much Shakespeare your head will spin)
Anna Padgett (The Good Ms. Padgett)
Charles Reaves with Andria Alefhii (We’ll Never Have Paris / Listening to Work)
Teresa Toro (Bushwick Book Club)

Hosted by Queen of the Apes, Ayun Halliday (No Touch Monkey! / East Village Inky)

FROM THE BOOK:
...children have a thousand distastes. Things are tedious to them. We have no right to attribute to them a belief in fairies, or an unwearied delight in bread and milk.
