SuitabookBack to school
Christianne C. Jones
- Reading
- Read together and pause to notice what the siblings choose or say. If the book raises questions about school routines, invite the child to compare them with what they already know.
- Themes
- Preparing for school: Jamal and Anisa shop for supplies as they prepare to enter different school grades. The premise places school preparation at the centre, but does not establish whether the experience is presented as exciting, difficult or ordinary.
- Worth knowing
- School preparation and shopping are the only specific situations established. The book's handling of any worries, disagreement or other potentially sensitive moments is unclear.
