5 Stars from a class of UK children.
An excellent and enticing story to use for the whole UKS2 class reading.
Thanks for writing such a fantastic book. It has been a pleasure to read this to my class (UKS2). The children really loved it!

‘Phil Earle’s writing in While the Storm Rages is beautiful & his language choices are authentic…it is an exciting historical adventure story for children in UKS2…a good book to read aloud to a class’. @AndersenPress

Year 6 self portraits, we’ll miss you so much! Thanks for an amazing year! #Kusama #mayflower #UKS2 #year6 #art
@MeakerR @LaraHawthorne Planet SOS is a great one for UKS2, plenty of scope to focus on specific environmental issues facing the planet. Amazing link to world mythology, too. Can’t wait to make a display from the text.
Any suggestions for the above ⬆️, @one_to_read @sam_creighton @SadiePhillips ?
Created by @TineMortier & #KaatjeVermeire, translated by David Colmer. Words and art coalesce in ‘Maia and What Matters’ to create an emotional experience that resonates long after reading. Themes around age, illness, death & life are sensitively explored. UKS2

Almost graphic novel feel to it.
3/4
@StephenConnor7 @KarlDuke8 @smithsmm @KSunray3 Some wonderful choices already (I think I'll second some). These could be used in LKS2 (or even UKS2 depending on cohort/teacher)
@teacher_mr_r @KateHeap1 @Nicola_M_N_ @one_to_read @jonnybid @sam_creighton @PaulWat5 @MarkASmith85 @MissS_Kimble @TsuiAllen @wishesandstars @karen_wallee @smerchant13 @richreadalot Impossible to choose, without missing something incredibly important out. However, these would be examples I have shared with most UKS2 classes the last few years:
‘The Arrival’ by Shaun Tan
‘The Dam’ by David Almond and Levi Pinfold
‘Rhythm and Poetry’ by Karl Nova.
@emilyreadnext @Teacherglitter Apparently I couldn't hold back. Here are 4 beautiful choices for UKS2:

@christina_26_ @OpenUni_RfP @MrEPrimary @_Reading_Rocks_ @Mat_at_Brookes @reading_realm @booksfortopics @booksaremybag @books_diversity For older readers (UKS2+) there’s this:
@RuddickRichard Q1: Start a class UKS2 graphic novel collection with these and you'll have the kids hooked on reading them pretty quickly. @JerryCraft @alooghobi @laufman @haleshannon #OURfPBookBlether
@SallySwain17 @booksfortopics @Booktrust @NosyCrowBooks @OpenUni_RfP @reading_realm @MarilynBrock For UKS2 - I love this collection of short stories by Shaun Tan! 😊
Finished #TheSharkCaller.A lyrical lovesong to letting go,longing,loss & the landscape of Papua New Guinea,which you become immersed in with every word.The way @ZillahBethell writes takes it deep into your heart for the long now. An exceptional story only she could tell.For UKS2.
