Picture books are an incredible tool to support children facing tricky times ❤️
"Picture books are often quite undervalued, and sometimes seen as a stepping stone to 'proper reading'. But picture books can be transgressive and beautiful and complex." -

What a great collection to support children going through the hardest of times ❤️🩹
This week is #nationalgriefawarenessweek
We‘ve chosen #picturebooks to help children talk about how they feel after a bereavement or loss. These stories can support children as they deal with differing emotions at a difficult time ❤️🩹

My map of children's independent bookshops is updated regularly. Most provide an online service and they're all run by people who can make well-informed book recommendations. Make sure you support your local one if you want to keep it. Any missing, please let me know. padlet.com/Jon_Biddle/r...
