Pas de panique, Marie-P!
Martine Latulippe
- Reading
- Read together and pause when Marie-P starts investigating. Invite the child to guess what might be happening, then compare their ideas with the story as it reveals more.
- Themes
- Friendship and a hidden secret: The synopsis identifies a friendship mystery but does not explain the secret or its resolution. The friendship and uncertainty are central to the mystery, but the available plot information does not show how the story judges either friend's choices.
- Worth knowing
- Laurie’s unexplained change in behaviour and Marie-P’s concern drive the mystery. If a child is sensitive to uncertainty between friends, you could check how they feel as the secret unfolds.
