@TeresaCremin @teachprimarily @Team_English1 @smithsmm There are many already suggested that I would recommend (wordless masters like Wiesner, Tan and Becker). I came across these relatively recently - sure Simon suggested a while ago. Well worth exploring. They’re by @guojingart 👌🏼
@my_red_spark @emmac2603 Amazing illustrations (love the attention to detail). Can’t wait to read what the pupils write after visualising and mapping out each level of the lighthouse.
Reminds me of this haunting picturebook. Will have to lend it to the class to read. A Gary Crews classic!
What an inspirational day spent at @clpe1 w/ the picturebook master, @charliehacking, & illustrator extraordinaire, @toddstanton1. Taking the time to ‘slow look’, introducing chn to the wealth of meaning encoded in pictures & text, exploring creativity with chn. #PowerOfPictures
@ClubPicturebook Graphic novels are so multi-faceted. Multiple plots can converge or diverge from one another. Focal points can change. It takes the tired ‘story mountain’ & flips it completely.
I find that there’s so much potential for visual description & empathetic writing #PrimaryPicBookClub
Many thanks for this @BookIslandBooks - lovely to receive as part of your blog competition.
Exploring lots of wordless texts recently & this has a lovely sense of flow, as though the book is subtly commanding you to turn the page. Great link to the environment, weather & forces.

A fun exploration into old age that provides children with another perspective of older members of their family or community.
@mazmitchell @PrimarySchoolBC @booksfortopics @ClubPicturebook These would be nice writing stimuli & encourage chn to subvert expectations of what a quest entails, challenge stereotypes, link quests/journeys to empathy & write themselves into their own. Great thing w/ picturebooks is that you can use them across the whole primary age range.
@MrS_Primary @HarrietJBerry @KarlDuke8 @smithsmm @Misterbodd @_Reading_Rocks_ @MissC_1717 Slow Loris by Alexis Deacon (out of print, unfortunately, but well worth tracking down) is a brilliant tale of why Loris’ are slow moving and tired during the day. Great link to adult life when we party too hard. 😂
Some more classics. 2/2
Massive thanks to @BookIslandBooks. Can’t wait to dive into the world of ‘The Umbrella’.
