Episode 76: Whimsically Spooky Books with Author & Artist Ken Priebe

On this week's dose of book recommendations, library love, and literary enthusiasm, our Library Laura Podcast guest is author, illustrator and animator Ken Priebe. He's the author of several books for children, including The Ice Cream Truck at Midnight, Let There Be Owls Everywhere, and Gnomes of the Cheese Forest And Other Poems. His next book, Goblabet, is coming in 2022 and being published by Bandersnatch Books. This episode is a treasure trove of book recommendations for kids and kids-at-heart. We talk about influences on his work and art, his love for whimsically spooky monsters, the joys and trials of having multiple library cards, and the delights of reading with your children.
