Description

On this episode of the KidLit Love podcast, I’m talking with Katherine Schwarzenegger Pratt about her newest picture book: KAT & BRANDY.

This is a delightfully inspiring, empowering and heartwarming tale about the powerful connection between animals and humans and the enduring friendships that can change a child’s life. 

Come listen as we talk about the personal connections from Katherine’s childhood found in the pages, the incredible themes of animals, nature and friendship readers will experience and the reasons why readers of all ages need this beautiful book.
