Big Kids Book Club – Author Interview: Guy Bass

Hey hey hey!

Welcome back to this week’s episode of the Big Kids Book Club.

In this episode, Guy Bass, author of over 30 books, including the Spyosaur, Stitchhead, Skeleton Keys, and Dinkin Dings series stops by the clubhouse to talk about his books.

Guy and I talk about how drama school influenced his writing, the fun you have writing heroes and monsters (with a little bit of alien thrown in) and how narrating his books allows him to connect through lockdown. 

Guy was an amazing guest and we are super grateful he was able to join us on the show.

Enjoy!
