Jane Rushmore
R194 Discovery Miles 1 940 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Marney's Mix Up shows the pitfalls of Marney, a grey squirrel who ventures beyond his home to gather nuts in autumn. His pre-conceptions of what it means to be 'squirrel' come into play after several awkward encounters with a red squirrel from the other side of the park. Marney's Mix-Up shines a comedic light on the pre-conceived judgements we all make about 'perceived difference', often leading to misguided prejudice and allows for conversation with young chlidren about racial bias. It does this in a light-hearted and engaging way that will introduce pre-school and early years children to the idea of how we can explore and celebrate similarities and differences, without misjudging or mistreating other people.

Two children feel adrift between the separate worlds of their parents ... With their father at the marina, and their mother in the workshop, Flo and Fee aren't sure where they belong. But at least they can still have fun painting the treasures that wash up on the shore. One day they hear a noise and see a stone trace an arc across the sky - it must be from Henri's giant slingshot! They decide to go see him, but first stop at the cafe, where they chat with the piano player, then visit their artist-friend in her shop. When they finally reach Henri, he lifts them up onto ladders where they can see two islands that were once connected by an ice bridge. "Have the two islands separated? Like Maman and Papa?" Flo asks. But Henri tells them there's a sand bridge underwater that links the islands, just as the girls still link their parents. Then he, like the piano player and artist, walks away with a brush and can of paint. Where can they all be going? This richly nuanced story is inspired by the geography and close-knit coastal community of La Grave heritage site on Quebec's Iles de la Madeleine.
