Haley interviews Thomas Salerno, an educator, author, freelance essayist, and podcaster from Long Island, New York. With a bachelor’s degree in anthropology and background in the fossil labs of the American Museum of Natural History in New York City, he turned to writing during the pandemic in 2020. This episode discusses Thomas’s debut children’s book The Riddle of the Tongue-Stones which just released from Word on Fire Votive and explores the importance of teaching children to integrate faith and science and helping them to develop friendships with the saints.
