Girl!!! We need to talk!!
Today, Krystle and Aleta discuss the young adult novel, “Jacob Have I Loved,” by Katherine Paterson. This is a beloved book from their middle-school years.
In addition, they discuss Katherine Paterson’s incredible ability to write about some of the very difficult situations youth can go through, with her characters processing and working through these difficult emotions…and how relevant the novel is even in adulthood.
Their tangents this week include: The Bridge to Terabithia (also written by Katherine Paterson); the film “Jacob Have I Loved;” Bridget Fonda’s transformation from Melaina (in The Shag) to Louise; and even a probably-inaccurate Bible story from Aleta and Krystle.
As always, listen along for your weekly laugh and coverage of a Young Adult Author that is just the “bees knees.”
