This Month's Read-Aloud



This month's read-aloud will be The Slippery Map. I thought it sounded perfect for our monthly theme of Maps. It is about a little boy named Oyster who, through the course of the story, learns that imaginations can be mapped. What a concept! Perhaps we will do a little imagination mapping of our own...

This has been described as an adventure story like Harry Potter, but less scary. I hope the children find it intriguing, exciting and heartwarming. Feel free to click the link above to read more about it.
