Blue and Bertie

Kristyna Litten writes a lovely book about Bertie the giraffe and what happens to him the day he stays away from his herd and meets Blue the blue giraffe. This book tackles issues surrounding meeting and becoming friends with someone who is different from you. This is great book to use in circle time especially when dealing with friendship topics. Kristyna Litten also uses lots of examples of examples of onomatopoeia in this book which makes it a lovely resource to use when introducing early figurative language. This book makes a lovely read with young children, the beautiful illustrations engage and interest young readers. Would recommend this book especially with early years and KS1 aged children. Picture book / Ages 3+ / Reviewed by Marie Berry, teacher.
