On November 9, 2021, I was delighted to talk about Jacob and the Mandolin Adventure in the AJL Authors Showcase! We presented our books for young people, and what a wonderful variety there was: fiction and non-fiction; picture books, middle-grade books, and YA books. I’m looking forward to reading many of the books mentioned last night. Thanks to Heidi Rabinowitz and Ellen Drucker-Albert for organizing this terrific event, and Sylvie Shaffer for her warm and intelligent moderating!
I’m thrilled to announce that Jacob and the Mandolin Adventure (Second Story Press) is now available as an audiobook wherever you buy (or borrow) audiobooks. And how amazing it was to hear someone put a “voice” to characters I had only previously imagined! Happy listening!
I’m pleased to share the YouTube interview that Ellin Bessner did with me and Dave Fleishman about Jacob and the Mandolin Adventure. It was a delight to discuss how I researched and wrote this historical novel as well as the “back story” about Morris Saxe. Here’s the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nqm8Dpz7q8E
I hope you’ll enjoy watching this video. Please tell friends and colleagues who might be interested.
Ellin Bessner interviewed me and Dave Fleishman for her podcast, The CJN Daily. As of July 7/21, it’s now out in the world. I’m happy to share the interview about Jacob and the Mandolin Adventure. Enjoy!
