Radio Programmes

The BBC radio site has all sorts of prgrammes hidden away that you might enjoy. You can either listen to them as they are broadcast (but you will need a DAB radio) or listen again on the BBC site for up to a week afterwards.

You might enjoy:
Big Toe Books on BB7. Each day at 7am you can hear a book being read. The daily reading is on the website from 8am. At the moment, they have one of my favourite books, Mark Twain's The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. They also have a messageboard where you can talk to other kids about books,authors and, of course, Harry Potter .

Another great programme, which is on Radio 4 every Sunday evening at 7.15, is Go4It, a weekly show all about books, authors and writing. You can listen to the programme through the website for up to a week afterwards, and there's lots of extra information on the fun and games section.

If you like Poetry, Poetry Please on Radio 4 is on Sundays , 4.30- 5.00. You'll be able to hear old and new poems being read, and this can really bring the words to life.
