RWYK Christmas Special Podcast:  Spooky MG Authors Prove that Spooky Stories Serve an Important Role All Year Round

HAHAHA, Merry Christmas everyone!

It’s time for the ReadingWithYourKids Podcast Christmas Special!

Spooky Middle Grade

Telling ghost stories on Christmas was a tradition for hundreds of years so this Christmas we decided to relive those traditions by bringing a spooky ghost story to all the listeners of the Reading with Your Kids podcast!

Can you imagine 9 award-winning middle-grade authors coming together to create a fun, spooky Christmas story for all of you? Yes, you read that right! Through modern eyes, Halloween might be a more appropriate holiday for ghosts, but these MG authors are here to prove that Spooky Stories Serve an Important Role All Year Round.

Please welcome S.A. Larsen, Kim Ventrella, Samantha M. Clark, David Neilsen, Angie Smibert, Katrina Knudson, Sarah Cannon, Victoria Vennerstrom Piontek & Jonathan Rosen to the Reading with Your Kids Podcast!

 

A note from Spooky MG Authors

We are a group of middle-grade authors working to prove that spooky stories serve an important role all year round. Connect with us by booking a free Skype Q&A with a panel of our amazing authors, downloading free resources related to our books and connecting with us for in-person visits. Also, check out our blog for articles focusing on the importance of spooky stories in middle-grade fiction. Find out more about the spooky middle-grade authors below.

At spookymiddlegrade.com, we seek to promote stories and authors that honor and reflect the lives of all young people. To accomplish this goal, we are actively seeking diverse voices. If you are a traditionally-published author of middle-grade spooky stories, we invite you to join our team and help us show that spooky stories have value all year round.
