Riassunto

Imagine what it would be like to be made of something different - like lollipops, metal or feathers! With the help of fun rhyming text and amazing illustrations, follow a little boy as his imagination runs wild and he explores what it might be like to breathe underwater or be made entirely of feathers. Although being made of feathers, fluff or sweets might sound amazing, he discovers that everything comes with a catch. He eventually realises that just being yourself is actually the best thing after all. Part of the QED Storytime series, this beautifully illustrated book introduces young children to the pleasures of reading and sharing stories, and includes supporting notes for parents and teachers. Storytime has recently featured on Cbeebies Bedtime Stories.

Su questo libro

Recensione:

‘Its sensitive content would work well in a classroom environment, in addition to supporting parents who are encouraging their children to feel comfortable in their own skin’ 

(The English Association)

The lively pictures which accompany each step of the story are amusing and made him giggle on a number of occasions...We entered into lengthy conversations about what he could be made of and he even went on to draw pictures of himself made of his favourite things.

(Adventure in Home School)

 Catchy rhyming text swirls through the delicately illustrated pages, making the book a delight to share or to read alone.

(Parents in Touch)

'This is a lovely rhyming story that tries to imagine what it would be like to be made of different things... The illustrations are lovely and bright’

(Let Them Be Small)
