Hi, I’m Miss. Hocking and I am the Teaching Assistant in Foundation 2. My favourite Children’s Books are the “You Choose” series, by Nick Sharratt and Pippa Goodhart. Whilst there are not many words to read, they offer great opportunities for lots of conversations. You can describe and play guessing games and make up stories about all the characters. You can go through the book and always find something new to look at and talk about.
I love the drawings and bright colours too. Both my children have enjoyed these books and we have had so many laughs, choosing where we would live, what we would wear and what new foods we would try especially if we were in space and at the end where we would sleep!
I hope you check them out and enjoy them as much as I do.
