Manage episode 502757562 series 3624897
In this episode of Reading in the Middle, host Annisha Jeffries welcomes celebrated author Winsome Bingham and Caldecott Honor recipient Jason Griffin to discuss "The Table," a poetic picture book that traces the life of a single table through generations. Discover how food traditions, visual storytelling, and creative collaboration enrich children's literature and family memories.
Winsome Bingham brings warmth and heritage to her work—from her debut, Soul Food Sunday (New York Times Best Children's Book), to The Walk, and most recently, Fish Fry Friday—a lively and loving celebration of family and flavors.
Jason Griffin is renowned for his emotionally layered art, earning a Caldecott Honor for Ain’t Burned All the Bright, and bringing depth to My Name Is Jason. Mine Too, and now The Table.
We unpack the power of art to process grief and joy, how picture books let children see themselves, and why a dinner table can hold generations of stories. Whether you're an educator, creator, or curious reader, this episode invites you to pull up a chair.
