Phil Kettle
Which character from a book would you most like to meet or to be?
I always wanted to be Biggles. Save the world… Destroy all the bad guys and still be home in time for dinner.
Where is the best place to read a book?
The best place to read a book is wherever you feel comfortable. But, I do reckon that reading in bed is hard to beat.
What were you like at school?
I was good at school, well at least I thought that I was. Maybe some of my teachers might have thought otherwise. My favourite subject was sport!
What are your hobbies?
I love anything to do with sport. I especially like cricket. I keep hoping that the Australian selectors will give me a call… I’m ready. Well, let's face it, you wouldn't have to be very good to beat the Poms.
Do you have any pets or kids?
I have three kids… Joel, Ryan and Shey. A spider is living in the corner of my lounge room. Not sure if a spider counts as a pet?
What is your most treasured possession?
My memories of my childhood. Growing up in the country. Having great parents, a brother and a sister.
What book would you take to a deserted island?
How to Cook Seafood and Make it Taste like Steak
Your words of wisdom to students completing the Premier’s Reading Challenge?
Good food, healthy body. Good books, healthy mind.
