Secret Superpower:
How to Inspire Young Readers Without Teaching a Thing

So how do we offer big, bold, and brave takeaways in our stories without preaching? Bethany Hegedus, award-winning author and founder of The Writing Barn, reveals how to wield this secret superpower, from her early hit-you-over-the-head drafts to her more balanced published books. Suit up for Bethany’s tips and tools to take you from teachy and preachy to engaging and empowering.
