Welcome to episode fourteen of Lidia’s Booktastic Podcast. Eight year old Lidia loves to read and we put this podcast together so Lidia could tell other boys and girls about the books that she reads and what she thinks of them. We look at all types of books: short stories, comics, facts books, book series and one offs but what’s connecting them all is that Lidia will have read them and will be letting you know what she thinks. In this episode, Lidia reviews Christmas books and it's a bumper episode so we had to make it into two parts! Enjoy!
