Ep 64: Writing and science communication for Children: Interview with Angela Mills, author of Bobby the Brown Long-Eared Bat
<p>Hey ecofictologists and welcome to episode 64 of the Ecofictology podcast! This week we are talking to a younger audience with our guest, Angela Mills, the author of the beautifully illustrated book Bobby the Brown Long-eared bat. I came across Angela while listening to a panel talk that the Bat Conservation Trust was putting on along with other authors who wrote childrens books about bats. And there were a few children on the call and it was absolutely heartwarming to see them engaging so much. I was excited to talk to Angela about what she thought was important when writing for kids and wanting to spark that bit of excitement in them for whatever species you’re writing about. Bobby did the job. You can find her book on her website and a portion of the profits go directly to The Bat Conservation trust so it’s doubly for a good cause. You can find the link in the show notes. I hope you enjoy. </p> <p>Angela’s website </p> <p><a href="https://www.bobbythebrownlong-earedbat.co.uk/">https://www.bobbythebrownlong-earedbat.co.uk/</a> </p> <p>Bat Conservation Trust</p> <p><a href="https://www.bats.org.uk/">https://www.bats.org.uk/</a> </p> <p><br><strong>Join the Rewilding Our Stories discord server!
