Welcome to the Kiwi Kids Book Chat with school librarians Penny Walch and Julie Huggins.
As we head into 2025, refreshed and ready to rock and roll, we have decided to change the podcast to a monthly affair, rather than fortnightly, as our school embarks on a number of big changes.
We are still committed to chatting about kiwi kids lit, and lit that kiwi kids are reading and can't wait to waffle with abandon.
This week we celebrate the amazingness that is Storylines and do a bit of a deep dive into the Non Fiction Notable Books of 2024.
Books highlighted in the episode, in no particular order whatsoever:
Dear Moko by Dr Hinemoa Elder
Piki Te Ora by Hira Nathan & Jessie Eyre
Kiwi Bees Have Tiny Knees by Rachel Weston
He Puka Ngohe Activity Book by Kat Quin
The Beach Activity Book by Rachel Haydon
Play Wild. Nature Craft Projects for Tamariki by Rachel Clare
Tasting With Your Feet by Ned Barraud
My Matariki Colouring and Activity Book by Dr Rangi Matamua & Miriama Kano
