SuitabookOn the run
Casey Willems
- Reading
- Read together in manageable stretches if useful, pausing after tense or difficult passages. Let your child set the pace, and invite them to talk about what felt most troubling or hopeful.
- Themes
- Care and moral complexity: The story includes people caring for one another, alongside examples of deceit, as Frans confronts questions of good and evil. It presents wartime behaviour as morally varied rather than reducing people to a single group-wide characterisation.
- Worth knowing
- Consider how much detail your child is comfortable discussing.
