Gather, a Kidlit Podcast
The Highlights Foundation's mission is to positively impact children by amplifying the voices of storytellers who inform, educate, and inspire children to become their best selves. This podcast was created for those who have a passion for storytelling for children and young adult audiences. We publish podcasts with audio from our free online events, called #HFGather. From time to time, we also publish interviews with kidlit authors and illustrators with tips, tricks, ideas, and craft lessons.
