have time to read books to discuss your amazing children's book. There's a rock concert in my bedroom.

Oh, thank you for having us. Oh, it's my pleasure. So please tell listeners, what is your children's

book about and why write this book? Well, we wanted to do a children's book forever and it only

1:44.1

made more sense as our kids got a little older and and we had children, which kind of helped the whole story. And we started to see the books that they were reading, that they liked. But we've always wanted to encourage them in different ways. And one of the things that we deal with a lot is having to be in front of a lot of people.

No, but that's the whole point, right? That's the whole thing. It's just not, it's completely letting loose, like not even caring. And I think sometimes you can get in your own way.

2:52.0

I can do it. You can do it. You know, we all can do it. So it's just, it's about having a good time.

2:55.8

It's also a good tool to have because both of them are so different that, like, our oldest
