KPE Episode 210: "Midnight Lightning"

"Midnight Lightning" by John Parsons
Beni and Jacob welcome back our subscribers to our 4th year of podcasting with another exciting kids' book to tell us about. These boys have started their final year at Pt England School and are Year 6 students in Room 18. We have realised that our original KPE podcasters are now in Year 10! Wow, time flies!
This book is very timely for us at Pt England because it is about a go-kart race and we are getting very excited about kart racing here because we are entering the soap box derby on March 22. This will be heaps of fun and we have an amazing prize to aim for. The winners get to go to America to race in the finals in Akron, Ohio.
To give you an idea of what this book is about from the blurb:
"Nicky's dad is convinced that he is great at building and repairing things. But Nicky and his mother know better. Everything Dad touches is a disaster. So when a go-kart race is announced,Nicky is sure he is going to die of embarrassment in the kart he and his father will build. At first, everything seems to be going well, but a disasterous test run means that another plan is needed and quickly!"
We know you will enjoy the podcast below, and if you want to read more, get hold of the book or click this link to see it on Google Books.

  12. Hi Beni and Jacob
    Congratulations on being the first published podcasters for KPE in 2009.
    You chose a great book and wrote an interesting script to share the story with us. It was especially good timing to talk about Midnight Lightning when Pt England is preparing to enter the soap box derby. I hope you get to be involved too.
