"Fiapule" by Catherine Hannken is reviewed by Paulitia and Sela from Room 15. These girls are year 5 students and they give us some very interesting ideas about family, culture and different ways of doing things as they talk about the book.
Fiapule is invited to his best friend Liam's birthday party, and he really, really wants to go. But there is a problem. The party is on the same day as his sister's christening, and his family won't let him go. Fiapule is taught about fa'a Samoa and learns that sometimes you have to put your family first. You can find out more about this author by clicking here.
Leave us a comment and let us know what you think about this. What would your family have said if you were invited to Liam's party?

Hi Paulitia and Sela,
ReplyDeleteThat was a really cool story about Fiapule.Can you tell me what was your favourite part?
My favourite part was when Liam told Fiapule that he was invited to his birthday but it was sad when Fiapule's mum and dad said no for him to go to the birthday.
Well bye for now see you later.

Hey Sela and Paulitea what an amazing podcast!!!!I am older than you and you done a podcast before me..Fiapule must be sad because his mum said no when he asked if he could go to Liams birthday.When Fiapule tryed to ask Liam about what his mum said he'll always but in.Also that book you guys read was awesome.I wish I could read that book
ReplyDeleteHi Sela and Paulitia,
ReplyDeleteYou have done a reat job. I am so proud of you. Isn't it interesting how Fiapule started to feel sick when he was worrying so much about not being able to go to the party, but talking about it and getting things sorted out with his Mum and Dad made him feel better. Must remember that.
Anyway I can't wait to hear your next one. I'm waiting in eager anticipation.
Good job

Hey Sela and Paulitia
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic story and podcast! I think that many people have been in a situation like this before where you have to make a tough decision.
I'm really glad that it worked out for the best and that Fiapule listened to his parents. You can pick your friends but your family will always be there for you. You girls both did a fantastic job!
