This meeting of the Thalia Kids' Book Club centers on author Pam Muñoz Ryan’s imaginative retelling of poet Pablo Neruda's childhood in her book The Dreamer. Host Madeline Cohen begins by interviewing Ryan about Neruda's difficult, lonely beginnings, what it was like for her write the book, her research process, and the nuts and bolts of creating this richly illustrated "fictional biography". Accomplished actress Rita Wolf performs several dramatic readings from the book, followed by an insightful question-and-answer session with the young audience.
