SuitabookThe white book
Silvia Borando
- Reading
- Pause on each spread and invite your reader to spot the new animal or tell the story in their own words. If the dinosaur feels startling, linger on that picture before turning the page.
- Themes
- Colour and visual surprises: As a boy paints the wall in different colours, animals appear in the painted areas, including birds, fish and a dinosaur. The wordless visual sequence uses changing colours and unexpected animal reveals to create humour and surprise.
- Worth knowing
- One revealed animal is a giant dinosaur described as having big teeth. Its appearance may feel startling to some readers, though the story is also characterised by visual humour.
