Tsh talks to her good friend, Sarah Mackenzie, about what makes good stories (especially for our kids). She's got a HUGE new project in the works: not only a new children's book, but a new publishing house!

Why do we need more stories that tell us things that were as true a thousand years ago as they are today? Listen in.
