John Schu, LOUDER THAN HUNGER

Beloved teacher and librarian John Schu joins Zibby to discuss LOUDER THAN HUNGER, a heart-wrenching and transformative novel-in-verse about a sensitive teen struggling with crippling anxiety and anorexia—inspired by the author’s experiences. John delves into his journey with mental health and the importance of crafting narratives that inspire without inadvertently glorifying harmful behaviors. He also explores the relationships portrayed in the book, touches on the themes of resilience and forgiveness, and shares his passion for musical theater and Broadway musicals!Purchase on Bookshop: https://bit.ly/3TiaefJShare, rate, & review the podcast, and follow Zibby on Instagram @zibbyowens!
