In Conversation with Jordan Sonnenblick

Jordan and I discuss his journey into the publishing world and several of his books. We also talk about his role as a voice actor for his two middle grades memoirs. He mentions the influences of Kurt Vonnegut and Frank McCourt, both of whom he sees as using comedy to discuss difficult and serious topics.
Frank McCourt was also Jordan's teacher at Stuyvesant High School in New York City.
Some of the books we discuss are:
The Boy Who Failed Show and Tell
Drums, Girls, and Dangerous Pie
Are You Experienced
Stepping Off
We chat about the visual nature of his books and how he conducts school visits
