Babou n'a pas peur
Lucie Papineau
- Reading
- Preview the book together, pausing to ask what the pictures suggest and whether anything feels worrying or funny. Afterwards, ask what Babou experienced and whether the ending changed the child’s view.
- Themes
- Fear and bravery: The title refers to not being afraid, but no situation, character experience or resolution is established. The title may open a conversation about fear and bravery, but it does not show whether fear is accepted, overcome, dismissed or explored.
- Worth knowing
- The title foregrounds the idea of not being afraid, but it is unknown whether the book depicts frightening situations, reassures a character, questions bravery or treats fear in another way.
