Sanctuary
Wendy Marloe
- Reading
- Take time to look closely at the illustrations together. Invite each reader to choose an image that speaks to them, without requiring anyone to disclose a private place.
- Themes
- A poem told through images: The book uses illustrations and shifts between child and adult points of view to explore possible special places. This image-led, reflective structure offers several perspectives rather than a single stated definition of sanctuary.
- Worth knowing
- Privacy, secrecy and hiding places are among the subjects raised, and may prompt different responses.
