KPE Episode 220: "Tom Thumb" by Gavin Bishop Ala and Toreka are publishing their very first podcast. These girls are Year 5 students and they are in Room 15. This book they have chosen to review is subtitled " The True History of Sir Thomas Thumb" and is written by a very popular New Zealand author at our school.
They tell us that this book is a collection of stories that Gavin Bishop has made up about the famous tiny fairy tale creature and they particularly like the one called "Tom Thumb and the Big Fish" and that is the one they tell us about. We hope you enjoy their podcast, and if you also like Gavin Bishop's books, we recommend you listen to 'Stay Awake Bear', 'Chicken Licken', 'Piano Rock', 'Bidibidi' and 'Kiwi Moon'.
fantastic start to podcasting girls! You certainly presented this like professionals and your editing was very slick. I have a feeling you made it easy for yourselves by speaking clearly and fluently in the first place.
ReplyDeleteThis is one of Gavin Bishop's books that I haven't read yet and you introduced it very well. I like the way you identified the theme of the story and explained it to us.
Well done
