Episode 42
In today’s episode, I’m talking with the award-winning writer and musicologist Kate Wakeling about children’s poetry as a tool for inclusion and realizing our unlimited potential. Kate is writer-in-residence with Aurora Orchestra - and that’s how my kids and I got to know her wonderful work - and writes regularly for BBC Music Magazine and the Times Literary Supplement.
Her debut collection of children’s poetry, Moon Juice by The Emma Press, won the 2017 CLiPPA and was nominated for the 2018 CILIP Carnegie Medal.
Such a beautiful and inspiring conversation. Enjoy!
