KKBC Season 2 : Episode 3 - Manga

Welcome to the Kiwi Kids Book Chat with school librarians Penny Walch and Julie Huggins. We love this episode where we interview three of our Year 8 boys from last year about their love of Manga. Whilst this is a Kiwi Kids Book Chat (the emphasis being on Kiwi Books) we couldn't pass up the opportunity at the end of 2023 to talk to three Kiwi Kids about their passion for Manga. So whilst none of the books mentioned are authored by kiwis, it is most certainly a nod to the fact that manga is exploding in popularity in NZ... Manga series mentioned in the episode: For younger readers: Yokai Watch Pokemon The boys also mentioned ⁠'gag' manga⁠ as being suitable for younger readers. Some may well be, but certainly not all! Suitable for intermediate readers: One Piece Naruto Fairy Tail My Hero Academia Spy X Family Death Note ⁠Bakuman⁠ - Manga about Manga For older readers: Bleach - the boys talk about this and Common Sense Media is a bit conflicted as to the age appropriateness of the anime tv series, ranging from 8+ to 16+ so we shall err on the side of caution...
