Today we’re featuring an episode from the podcast Grimm, Grimmer, Grimmest. It’s a wildly enchanting fairy tale podcast made in partnership with Adam Gidwitz, bestselling author of A Tale Dark and Grimm. Each episode features a classic fairy tale, bringing to life a world full of curious creatures and mischievous foes.

Before we get into that episode, we have an extra special treat – an interview with Adam Gidwitz! The wonderful Wil Williams, a podcast industry expert who also happens to work at Tink Media, got to chat with Adam about the show and his work.

They talk about how fairy tales inspire such similar thoughts and questions from kids all across the US, why spooky stories appeal to kids, and how podcasts like Grimm, Grimmer, Grimmest might make it easier for them if they’re curious. As a former teacher, Adam thinks a lot about the ways kids interact with stories and the world, and he shares some really helpful insights about what we let kids read.
