Listeners can easily get caught up on the best children's books of the past year by jumping to the December 30, 2020 episode "Our Third Annual Year-in-Review Episode." Librarians, teachers, and those interested in hearing behind-the-scenes stories about creating and publishing kids' books may enjoy The Yarn, a podcast from School Library Journal that focuses on children's literature. First launched in August 2015, The Yarn is hosted and produced by elementary school librarian Travis Jonker and teacher Colby Sharp.
