- Reading
- Read a poem at a time and pause where your child wants to talk. You could invite them to choose a line or feeling to discuss, while leaving room for different beliefs.
- Themes
- Faith and spirituality: The poems are framed as a way to talk with God and are described as communicating experiences through a mystical sensibility. The spiritual frame is clear, but the poems’ specific religious claims and how they present them are not described.
- Feelings, dreams and loss: These are among the experiences the collection is said to communicate through poetry. The subjects are present, but whether poems offer comfort, advice or another perspective is not established.
- Worth knowing
- Fear, sadness and loss are among the stated subjects. Their treatment and intensity are not clear, so consider checking in with your child as you read.
