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 remarkable body of work by Ned Barraud - conservationist and lover of animals.
