This episode of Reading with Your Kids is a must-listen for anyone who loves imaginative stories, hilarious character voices, and the magic of co-authoring.  We're joined by the dynamic duo behind the "Stinky Stories" series, Chris Grabenstein and JJ Grabenstein, who take us on a delightful journey through their creative process. From the origins of their talking stuffed animal narrator, Stinky the skunk, to the irresistible charm of their fable retellings, these two creators clearly have a blast bringing their whimsical world to life. But it's not just the kids who will get a kick out of these stories - Chris and JJ share their "Pixar approach" to sprinkling in jokes and references that will have the adults giggling too. And if the hilarious voices they demonstrate are any indication, the audiobook versions are an absolute must-listen. Beyond the laughs, this episode also explores the power of imagination and how these authors are encouraging young readers to keep their creativity alive in a tech-driven world. We also chat with author Patti Calcosz who gives us a sneak peek at her latest middle-grade novel, "Olaf and Essex," which blends magical realism with thought-provoking themes about societal prejudices. So grab a cozy spot, your favorite stuffed animal, and get ready for a delightful dose of literary fun!
