Reseña del libro "Radio Cat: Tommy the Learned Cat Goes to BBC: 95th Anniversary of BBC's 1st Radio Broadcast"
'Good Afternoon! It's a foggy and cold afternoon here in Coventry, the heart of England, and this is the news at the top of the hour from our news cat Mog Mittens...' That's how Tommy the Learned Cat starts his afternoon show on BBC Radio. Lots of important topics in the feline world are discussed on Tommy's show, from the latest news in politics (the Feline Society is debating the response to the Canine Society which accused the cats of being responsible for the extinction of 33 different species), to the world of science (did you know that scientists proved recently that every single domesticated cat can be traced back to one of the five African wild cats?), to the world of sports (Nanahuli, the one-eyed Rescue Cat in Hawaii, became the first feline surfer recorded in the history of feline-kind). And while listeners are enjoying the lovely meow mixing of music featuring titles that clawed their way to the top 10 in the chars, Tommy tells his young readers about the history of the radio and the British Broadcasting Company (or BBC for short). BBC began gathering families around bulky old radio sets in 1922, back in the day when television and internet were still non-existing terms. From Children's Hour, the first children's programme aired on BBC radio, to CBeebies, the modern-day show, Tommy tells how children were always an important part of BBC's audience. Join Tommy, our Radio Cat, in his BBC radio studio, to celebrate 95 years since BBC's first broadcast on 14th of November 1922.
