We revisit host Peter O’Dowd’s conversation with hip-hop artist Darryl “DMC” McDaniels about his book for young readers “Darryl’s Dream.”

It’s about a little boy named Darryl, who learns to overcome bullies and speak his poetry. He wrote the book with Shawnee Warfield, Johnny Warfield and Adam Padilla with illustrations by Tristan Tait.
