Welcome to Middle Grade Mavens, the children’s book review podcast. Tune in as Julie Anne Grasso and Pamela Ueckerman chat about children’s books—not only middle-grade fiction but everything from picture books to the occasional young adult (YA) novel.

If you’re a lover of children’s books, a librarian, a parent seeking book recommendations, or perhaps an author wading your way through the world of middle-grade fiction, then Middle Grade Mavens is the podcast for you.

We would love your feedback!  Please leave us a review on iTunes or send us an email and let us know what you think.
