At The Storyteller’s Shelf Podcast, community is one of our core values, and we’re proud to welcome the newest members of our podcast family.
We received an impressive number of thoughtful and competitive applications for our volunteer positions, making the selection process both exciting and difficult. The volunteers joining us this year bring a wide range of expertise and a shared passion for children’s literature, each offering a unique perspective shaped by their own backgrounds in publishing, writing, and business. We’re honored to have them as part of our 2025 crew. Get to know our team below, and please support their work by exploring their links and following along with their journeys.
Please note that our call for volunteers is closed.
