KPE Episode 335: Big Fish Little Fish

Unaloto and Kobe podcast "Big Fish Little Fish" by  Melanie Drewery.

Jeremy wants to win the local fishing competition. He has his heart set on the first prize of a spinning sure-catch reel and a snap-resistant rod. He has plans to go out on his friend's dad's speed boat, but then his grandad offers to take him out in his old rowboat - and his mum accepts on his behalf!

The author's message is that it's not the size of the fish, it is the reason for catching the fish that counts. A section at the back of the book has information on fishing and the whaling industry in New Zealand.

KPE Episode 290: "Evil Fred"

 "Evil Fred" by Kylie Begg is Unaloto's first podcast and he has worked with Joe from Room 17 to present this book as a podcast. We know you will also enjoy the animation Unaloto created to illustrate a part of the story they don't get time to talk about.
This book is very popular with Pt England students and we are sure you will enjoy the way these two Year 6 boys discuss the book.  It involves a very evil family, the Rancids, and the way they try to corrupt a very cute dog.  Let them know what you think of their podcast...
