Jo's Boys is a podcast for little women, little men, and everyone in between! We'll be reading through "Little Women" chapter by chapter, pulling out rainbow threads as we go. Our guests include best-selling authors, legendary activists, and veteran Alcott scholars. Your host is Peyton Thomas, author of the award-winning novel "Both Sides Now," whose non-fiction has appeared in the New York Times and Vanity Fair.
Chapter 47: Harvest Time with Rey Terciero and Bre Indigo
And then they realized: They were no longer little girls. They were little women.
Joining us for the final episode of the podcast are Rey Terciero and Bre Indigo. Rey and Bre are the author-illustrator team behind Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy, a graphic novel adaptation of Little Women. Rey is also the New York Times bestselling author of many other books, including the award-winning Free Lunch. Bre has illustrated a number of graphic novels and comics, including most recently The Dog Knight.

Chapter 45: Daisy and Demi with Claire Forrest
We're joined today by Claire Forrest, the award-winning author of Where You See Yourself, to chat all about the two youngest members of the March family -- well, the Brooke family. It's perhaps the most heterosexual chapter of this book to date, but we soldier on, and we also chat about Claire's outstanding debut novel and her publishing journey as a woman with cerebral palsy.
