The Lougheed Reads Podcast
9 APR 2022 · In this episode, Mr. Boudreau is joined by several enthusiastic student readers to interview author Eric Walters about his Red Maple nominated book _The King of Jam Sandwiches_ . We have such a great conversation with Mr. Walters about the book, as well as about mental health issues and the effects on children living with parents suffering from mental health. It is a topic that is both important, and painful, for Walters as _The King of Jam Sandwiches_ is based heavily on his own life and experiences.

Jerome. Finally, author Eric Walters joins our panel, made up of Grade 7 teacher Ms. Swan, as well as enthusiastic student readers, to discuss his latest book _Don't Stand so Close to Me_ , a story about three teens struggling to cope with quarantine during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic.
