About the Book: The Teeth of the Lion - podcast

Author Anita Sanchez talks about how to choose a writing topic by speaking to how she chose the character for her book, a dandelion. She wanted a character that elicited an emotional response from her audience. She also wanted to bring attention to an important cause, the dangerous use of aesthetic pesticides, by taking a familiar subject and looking at it from all angles to provide a new perspective for her readers.
