E171: Immersive YA Romance: RUN AWAY WITH ME by Brian Selznick
Description
On this episode of the KidLit Love podcast, I’m talking with Brian Selznick about his newest young adult novel: RUN AWAY WITH ME.
This is a profoundly romantic novel set in Rome that blends words with pictures for an immersive and emotional experience. It has a strong sense of place and you’ll be whisked off to Rome without ever leaving your living room.
Come listen as we talk about his unique storytelling format that beautifully blends words with images, the pandemic opportunity that brought the book to life and Brian’s hope for readers as his new book goes out into the world.
