Tiny Stories—using picture books in schools


Tiny Stories
When one Year 3 class heard me talk about Tiny the Giant, they were inspired to create a beautiful book of their own. The children took Tiny and made him their own, sending him on wonderful adventures and often even illustrating their adventures themselves. Picture books in schools (at any level) can be a useful way to help children of all abilities engage with storytelling and language. Asking children to think about how the pictures tell their own story is also useful.
