DOUBLE AUDIOBOOK RELEASE DAY: QUEER POWER, LIKE LITERALLY DUDE
Two Nonfiction releases
Hi, friends! Iβm happy to announce two nonfiction titles I had a blast recording:
QUEER POWER and LIKE, LITERALLY, DUDE.
QUEER POWER is a nonfiction about Queer leaders, icons, and activists, written and illustrated for young adults. I had so much fun recording this because each entry had the vibe of hyping a friend. Some super famous folks are included, but also lesser-known folks, and all are fabulous. A fun, uplifting read for all ages!
LIKE, LITERALLY, DUDE is a nonfiction exploring linguistic frontiers; I narrate the chapter devoted to the emergence of the pronoun They. Did you know that they is not the first pronoun the English-speaking world changed from a strictly plural one to also being used in the singular? Because language is both written and spoken, this book shines both in textual form and as an audiobook! Itβs got a great blend of conversational humor and academic research β totally what Iβd call edutainment! I absolutely LOVE making high-brow stuff sound fun and accessible, and linguist Valerie Fridland does this masterfully in this book. It was a total blast to be a part of this title; definitely give it a listen.
