YA and other books for young people were featured on “The Next Chapter,” the CBC Radio show hosted by Shelagh Rogers, on Monday, April 4. It is available on podcast.

The program includes a wonderful interview with Rukhsana Khan about her latest book Wanting Mor. As well, there is a thought-provoking interview with Susan Juby on her new book Nice Recovery (about overcoming alcohol and drug addiction at the age of 20) as well as a discussion of YA books with Jill Murray, Joan Clark and three teen readers and a brief chat with Eric Walters on getting boys to read. Bravo to all the participants.
