Books we recommend
Today we have NO PLANS
Take some time to wind down over the holidays. This story, about hectic lives and the need to slow the pace, by Jane Godwin and Anna Walker, is a great reminder of the need to dream, imagine and relax.
Somewhere Else
Sometimes when you don’t feel like going somewhere or doing something, you have reasons you don’t want to share. Somewhere Else by Gus Gordon is the tale of George the goose,who always finds a reason to stay home when his friends invite him out. All it takes is someone who understands and helps to find a way through.
The Singing Hat
Some books are written with quirkiness to help convey complex ideas. The Singing Hat by Tohby Riddle is a delightful story which addresses the way we treat those who fall outside our idea of ‘normal’. He uses descriptive language and sophisticated illustrations incorporating collage. The story is a sensitive but gently humorous exploration of social isolation, inclusion, problem solving and compassion.
