Welcome to Hardcover or Paperback - a podcast about children’s books hosted by kids who love to read!
Hardcover or Paperback is hosted by Ameya and Manan Punathambekar, kids who want to tell kids around the world about books they’ve read and loved!
Sometime in April this year, when we realized that we would not be going back to school anytime soon thanks to the terrible, horrible, no good, very bad coronavirus, we thought it would be fun to start a new project. We missed being in class, talking to our friends about books and movies and videogames…and we thought, why not start a podcast in which we talk about the books we really enjoyed reading?!
