Vibrant picture book about the first day of school describes a beautiful world where everyone feels they belong.
Feeling that you belong and that the world around you is comforting and safe is important in a child's social emotional development. And there's no time like the first day of school to have a child question these feelings. With her vibrant and positive picture book, Just Imagine a More Beautiful World, poet and author Christine McDonald brings young readers a story that celebrates new experiences and the beauty of the world around us.
The playful story involves a thought-provoking classroom assignment given to young students on their first day of school by their teacher, Mrs. Burns. The task is for each child to make their own world, where everyone belongs, using cardboard and all the colors of the rainbow-and to make sure there is a door so that they can always find their way back to their heart...the safest place to be.
With striking prismatic spreads featuring precious animal characters and a heartwarming text, the story celebrates the first day of school, its challenges and surprises, of belonging and making the world a better place. Families and educators of young children will welcome a book that paves the way for a promising start to a young child's new school year.
