In the house today is microbiologist-turned-author Desirée Calderón de Fawaz, who wrote and illustrated the 2017 picture book Tata’s Earrings, then penned her debut novel Quetzalli’s Last Song, the first entry in the Brum Hesles Series. Listen to Arthur chat with her about topics like her former work in microbiology, the gorgeous illustrations in QLS, the strides that have (and haven’t) been made in regard to representation, and the importance of educating ourselves on climate change.

As you can probably tell, I have plenty of appreciation for books, movies, and TV shows—enough that I'm willing to write up whole reviews for all of this media and spread the good (or bad) word about them to everyone else. You can find me doing the same thing over at my podcast, which is also called 2 Cents Critic, where I bring on a variety of special guests to help me do reviews and recaps of (you guessed it!) books, movies, and TV shows.
