Impossible Moon (feat. T-Mo Goodie and Breanna J. McDaniel)
In this episode, Mable tries to travel to the moon, inspired by the stories her sick grandma has told her. She journeys through the stars, getting some help along the way from constellations, on her quest to touch the moon.
The person reading this story in this episode of The Podcast Where They Read Stories is T-Mo Goodie, a rapper from the very important and legendary music group Goodie Mob. The music that T-Mo made told stories about Atlanta and the South – it quickly spread far and wide, inspiring many other artists. All that is to say: lots and lots of people love T-Mo, because he’s really, really, really cool.
And for a special treat, the author of Impossible Moon, Breanna J. McDaniel, comes back to share why she decided to write the book. Breanna is an author, researcher, and doctor who focuses on education and representation in youth literature. Which is a really fancy way of saying that she cares about learning and characters in books a whole lot – as we all should!
