Beyond the Book is a podcast about raising curious, capable kids and all the ways children learn beyond the pages of a book.

Hosted by children’s author and educator Krista Conway, the podcast explores reading, education, homeschooling, parenting, nature, travel, careers, and the everyday experiences that help children understand the world around them.

Because a book can introduce a child to a new place, a new idea, a new career, or a new way of seeing the world but the learning doesn’t have to stop when the book closes.

Krista talks with educators, authors, parents, and interesting people from all walks of life about helping children become confident readers, curious thinkers, and engaged explorers. From struggling readers and the science of reading to national parks, real-world careers, family adventures, and following a child's interests, Beyond the Book is about making learning bigger than school and childhood bigger than a checklist.

Read it. Wonder about it. Then go see where it takes you.
