Books and the City

Disney vs. Cartoon Network vs. Nickelodeon

15 Jun 2020

Description

Buckle up because we’re getting super nostalgic and talking toons today! We cover all the formative classic cartoons/kid’s shows across all three channels, with special shoutouts to the PBS shows for everyone without cable. Remember Arthur? Dragon Tales?! So great. Also, find out if you’re one of the two people on this planet who have watched a show that Becky grew up with. And be sure to head over to the Books and the City Instagram stories to vote for our official hashtag! We need your help to break the tie. Then stick around for some wonderful book talk, including a nice variety of YA, literary fiction, a thriller, and some antiracist nonfiction. Read on for links, and check out bookshop.org/shop/booksandthecity to shop the books we’ve discussed on this episode, and all past episodes! We won’t be recommending bar pairings during quarantine, but we’ll bring them back after this is all over with. If you have a perfect bar + book pairing in your city, OR any thoughts about the books we talked about in episode 13, send us a note at [email protected]> Libby just read:The Miseducation of Cameron Post by Emily M.
