Episode 46: Author Visit with Glenn McCarty

Ice Cream with Authors: Christian Books for Kids 7-13

Thursday, February 19, 2026 - 29 minutes

In this episode of Ice Cream with Authors, we are visiting with Glenn McCarty. Glenn is the author of the middle grade Tumbleweed Thompson Adventures novel series and The Song of the Stone Tiger. He teaches middle school English in Western New York, where he lives with his wife and children in a small town that’s pretty much Mayberry. But without Don Knotts. Bummer. He finds campfires and banjo music two of life’s simple pleasures. And pie.

Ice Cream with Authors is the podcast that brings mini-author visits straight to your home or car! Perfect for kids ages 7 through 13 and their grown-ups, each episode serves up delightful conversations with authors who create faith-filled chapter books and middle grade adventures.
