In this episode, we dive deep into the heart and soul behind Alex's latest book, "The Effects of Pickled Herring." Join us as Alex shares the inspiration drawn from personal life, the cultural significance of Judaism in storytelling, and the book's powerful exploration of cognitive decline through the lens of youth. We discuss the challenges of addressing heavy themes for a younger audience, the importance of representation in literature, and the transformative power of art and animation in storytelling. Whether you're a fan of graphic novels, someone who's experienced the challenges discussed in the book, or just love a good story, this episode offers something for everyone.
