You’ll also hear more about how he decided to become an author, get an insight into his writing process, and get a few Dan-approved writing tips.

In a special PSA for The Story Seeds Podcast, Jason Reynolds, the National Ambassador for Young People’s Literature, gives kids (and grownups!) eight everyday tips for fighting germs and staying healthy, plus an example of a recipe homemade hand sanitizer (for all those slime makers out there).
On our very first episode, Dan Gutman, the best-selling author of the My Weird School series collaborates with 11 year old creative rockstar Hannah to grow her story seed which is, err, about a wish-fulfilling seed! Join host Betsy Bird, as she guides you through Dan and Hannah’s Story Seeds adventure and reveals the brand new original story that grew out of Hannah’s idea: “The Magic Seed.”
