City of Spies and Resistance: First Second Books




I should have had this podcast posted up a couple of months ago, but it

got locked up on my busted laptop. Better late than never. These are a

couple of good books. Enjoy the awesomeness that is my podcast!

I tried, but I couldn't keep it to under 3 minutes this time.

You can see my special Atomic Robo vs the crew from We Fight Robots (otherwise known as, My Kids) HERE.

Atomic Robo can be found HERE and HERE.

The Secret Science Alliance: Comics in the Classroom Podcast 3



I REALLY liked this book. I had a nice review all written and almost proofed (complete with funny little bit about how I can be bribed with sketches that made complete sense, but my wife thought I should leave it out because someone might take it serious...silly/sensible wife), but them my computer shut down on me AGAIN, possibly losing EVERYTHING: pictures, articles, etc.

Oh well.  Now you have to suffer through the sound of my voice.

Thanks for tuning in, I kept it to just over 3 minutes this time.

Here is the link to the homepage of the book I reviewed, The Secret Science Alliance.

Cousteau, Koufax and a Mouse: Comics in the Classroom Podcast 2




Welcome to our second podcast, only a couple of days after out first. This time I focused on some kids books that I had put off for far too long. Two of them are biographies with amazing art: The Fantastic Undersea Life of Jacques Cousteau and You Never Heard of Sandy Koufax?!. Then I change gears and review a book for younger readers (k-2), Little Mouse Gets Ready.

Hope you hear something useful to you.

Thanks,
Scott Tingley

Our First Podcast - Boom Kids!




Welcome to our very FIRST podcast. I had no intention of ever doing this, but since I had to as part of a computer class I figured I might as well do one for Comics in the Classroom. I think it went pretty well. I stumbled couple of times, but I was able to edit out most of the major problems.

Let me know if you watched it...no comment necessary, but I would like to know if anyone accessed it.

Thanks,
Scott Tingley
