Product Information

O meu filho adora usar os meus longos colares, inclusive nos últimos dias teima em sair de casa com um longo colar de bolas coloridas que tenho, numa destas saídas um Sr chegou a fazer um comentário ao meu filho “Um menino com um colar? And despite the rehearsals going badly wrong, on the night of the performance, Dad just loves the show and declares his son Cliff to be star of the night, whispering to his son, ‘May I have my pearls back now? Fun story about acceptance of a crocodile who finds some clothes in the swamp and tries them on and is teased by other animals.

g. with this one mr5 sees nothing wrong with the crocodile in a dress and pearls until the hyenas tell him it’s something not acceptable so the message is kind of lost- and the message actually becomes not everyone will accept you. It is a story about love, and its overriding message is to be brave – your friends will stand by you, and your parents won’t even care what you wear because they love you unconditionally. Cliff the crocodile discovers a slinky frock and some fabulous peals and heels, and just has to try on the outfit.

The story follows Cliff the little crocodile who finds a pile of clothes – “a slinky frock, stilettos and a string of pretty pearls”.

Upeasti toteutettu kerronta yhdenvertaisuudesta, itsensä ilmaisusta ja ennen kaikkea omassa nahassaan viihtymisestä! She has also won numerous awards, including the Children's Book Award, the Sheffield Children's Book Award and the Silver Smarties Prize. There are specific pieces for specific body parts; but body parts do NOT define gender, therefore there are no gendered clothing. It provoked some interesting discussion; some boys were certain their parents wouldn’t like them wearing girls’ clothes.But the mean hyenas laugh at him and tell him to stop dressing like a girly or they’ll go and tell his Dad. Freddy the frog turns out to be a big supporter of Cliff, and the animals unite to devise a show in which Cliff can partake in his new guise. Pride-teemaan sopiva kuvakirja, jossa pikkukroko haluaisi kulkea mekossa, mutta pelkää isänsä mielipidettä. He tries them on and likes to wear them but his big struggle is whether or not to tell his “motorbike-riding, leather-jacket-wearing” dad – “would his father love him if he saw him in a frock?

If you want to do something, but you don’t because you’re worried about what people will say then you aren’t good to your own heart. It deals with issues children may well come up against and is put together in a way that makes the reader feel looked after and okay, even though things in life may well feel far from okay. Jeanne Willis' characteristic rhyming couplets keep things bouncy and moving along at a fast pace, while Stephanie Laberis' illustrations are teeming with riotous colour and splendour. Wanda the little witch loves school, but she's a little shy - and very nervous about the school magic contest!Jeanne Willis is an award-winning author who has written over 150 books, including The Bog Baby , the Paddington Movie novelisation and Tadpole's Promise . It became evident during the conversation that they had never even considered, for example, a boy wanting to wear a dress, or for that matter, any other challenges to stereotypes.

Lapsen päiväkodissa pojatkin ovat halutessaan saaneet pukeutua prinsessoiksi eikä asiasta ole kukaan ollut mitään mieltä, joten ehkä siksikin krokon hermoilu isänsä mielipiteestä tuntui lapsesta vähän oudolta. Mietin jopa voiko kirja tehdä liian ison numeron asiasta sellaiselle lapselle, jolle mekkoja pitävät pojat eivät ole juttu eikä mikään. Uma história importante nos dias que correm, porque nem todos os meninos têm de vestir calças assim como todas as meninas não têm de gostar de vestidos! The support of other creatures in the swamp to put on the show is what makes the story worth the read. Next, we are introduced to Dad; he looks like a baddy with a patch over one eye, leather jacket flying as he roars around on his motor bike; none of the other animals dares challenge him.Não me aborreci mais porque não vale a pena, mas expliquei ao meu filho, que se ele quer usar o colar, pode usar, aliás pode usar o que bem entender desde que esteja em conformidade com as condições meteorológicas! The author took liberties with bullies who are not native creatures of the swamp but are mean just the same. Of course, it's also a look at inclusion and acceptance and supporting your friends and family to be who they want to be. The sense of fun is emphasised with the illustrations by Stephanie Laberis which illuminate the narrative and bring the characters to life.
