Our Small Books, Big Ideas workshop is back! In this intimate workshop, participants will delve into the fundamentals of quality picture books. In today’s world of screen dominance and heavily commercialised children’s literature, developing a critical eye to curate an intentional collection of quality books for our children is of vital importance.
In this workshop, participants will:
Learn, through examples, to recognise the elements and techniques used in high quality picture books
Explore techniques and skills to read books in a way that provokes deep thinking and a lifelong love of books
Examine and discuss examples of books that address challenging but important topics, such as gender inequality and violence
This workshop is suitable for parents and teachers reading with young children or children with learning differences.
