What Does It Take to Educate Your Child Through Literature Without a Curriculum? 📚🎙️
As parents, we all want to educate our children about life’s important topics, but finding age-appropriate materials can be a challenge. Many novels today are either too graphic or disconnected from reality. That’s why I started writing fiction—to create stories that engage readers while tackling crucial cultural issues in a thoughtful and impactful way.
In this episode, we’re exploring how you can educate your child through literature—without a rigid curriculum. Instead of traditional lessons, books can serve as powerful tools to spark meaningful conversations, encourage critical thinking, and help children develop empathy and awareness.
You’ll Learn:
📖 How to choose books that introduce complex topics like history, social issues, and emotional resilience
👩🏫 Why reading together—or separately—can create natural, pressure-free discussions
🧠 How to use open-ended questions and comparisons to deepen understanding
💡 Why relatable characters help kids process difficult emotions and real-world challenges
🚸 How my books, including The Girl Who Didn’t Exist, introduce children to themes of neglect, resilience, and healing in an engaging, safe way
