Welcome to another installment of the Shelf Care Interview, an occasional podcast series in which Booklist editors get to talk to book people. This Shelf Care Interview is sponsored by Capstone.
In this episode of Shelf Care Interview, Sarah Hunter talks with Patricia Kreiser about her debut picture book Always Together, which came out in January.
Patricia Kreiser is an author and illustrator and proud mom who absolutely loves creating picture stories. Some of her earliest and best childhood memories include endless hours with Breyer horses, drawing (but not on the walls) and reading pretty much anything she could get her hands on. Patricia graduated from Pratt Institute and hopes her stories will one day be someone's favorite childhood memory. She joins us today from her home near Philadelphia.
