For Dr. Eleanor Wint, becoming an author was a process that began through her work in academia. While working on a separate book, it was her granddaughter, Lois, who was inspired to create a story about her penguin, Tweet Tweet. Lois was struggling with school bullies and her Tweet Tweet adventures not only mirrored her frustrations, but they also held the answers to her own dilemmas. Listen now to hear how "Gogo" supported her granddaughter's motivation and helped her endeavor to capture Tweet-Tweet's adventures.
