Title: Charlie eats a Rainbow
Author: Karen Bishop
About:
Charlie is a little boy who loves mountain biking. He spends all day doing tricks with his friends and enters a big bicycle race.His excitement is short lived, when a few days before the race, he falls ill. Not wanting to go to the doctor his mom suggests he eat a rainbow to chase the nasty flu away.Charlie learns all about the rainbow of fruit and vegetables he can eat to stay healthy and fight off any germs and sickness bugs.
Hamish loved this story and could relate to Charlie, he also asked me to make him a rainbow plate to eat.Whilst I don’t struggle to get Hamish to eat his fruit and vegetables, this beautiful book would assist in encouraging young children to eat healthier and educate older children on how to eat to stay healthy.Written in rhyme it makes a wonderful first reader and there’s an informative section for parents at the back.
Title: Skorokoro
ABOUT :An adorable tale of friendship and learning to cope with feeling lonely.
Feeling sad and lonely and a little different from his friends, Fred the fox sets out to find someone to chat to.
He meets Bonnie, the shy little bear. The two become friends and learn that it’s okay to be different.Phillipa talks straight to the heart of our children in her latest book as she guides them through dealing with big emotions in this cute woodlands tale.The back of the book has a page for parents to open further discussion on the emotions within the book.
And there last page tells us the wonderful things we can learn from nature and the creature characters throughout the tale.
We love the feeling friends series and I see us refering back to this story often as Hamish grows.
