Review of Let’s Roll: A Guide to Setting up Tabletop Role-Playing Games in your School or Public Library

Let’s Roll is a guide for librarians to introduce youth tabletop RPG groups in their communities and schools!  This book is written by a librarian for librarians and explains everything from how to propose a program to what TTRPGs you should try with your group to how to run your first game.  Check it out for tips, case study examples, and more!

Review: Teacher-Gamer Handbook, a guide for TTRPG educators

Teacher-Gamer Handbook is a guide for educators to learn the ins and outs of effectively running a tabletop RPG class!  This book covers class outlines and activities, detailed explanations of the skills kids learn through TTRPGs, tips for addressing common concern points, and SO much more!  As a teacher-gamer who uses TTRPG elements in the class that I teach, I loved getting to check this out, and I hope you do too!

Interview with Michael Low, creator of Starsworn and Luck of Legends!

I previously reviewed Michael’s game, Starsworn and listened to the playthroughs on Stories Podcast, and they were both so good, I kind of had to do an interview. Michael has a lot of experience and insight in playing TTRPG’s with kids and has done wonders for the kids in his educational programs! We talked about the games, advice, why TTRPG’s work so well with kids… so much solidly helpful information.
