SuitabookMéchante Frissella!
Reynald Cantin
- Reading
- Read together and pause after Frissella’s failed attempts: invite the child to notice what she is trying to do and what changes in her thinking. The French text may call for shared support if needed.
- Themes
- Meanness and unmet needs: Frissella decides she needs to become mean to fulfil her mission, then discovers that meanness is often connected with sadness or something missing. The story presents this connection as a life lesson, while the word “often” leaves room for other explanations.
- Worth knowing
- Frissella wants to frighten a child, and the story includes a ghost, a witch and the wolf from Little Red Riding Hood. The outline presents these elements humorously.
