Have you ever done a storybook walk geared towards mid to upper elementary? The Storybook Walk edition of Freedom to Read was created to make doing your own storybook walk as easy as possible. This walk contains discussion questions as prompts that will get children thinking, and would work great as an indoor walk on a hallway. It's a fantastic storybook walk for Banned Books Week or to encourage discussion about the importance of books!
To make things easy, the storybook walk editions have been set up so that each illustration spread matches up perfectly in the middle and page numbers have been added for easy sorting. All you need to do is open the book, CUT on the dotted line, LAMINATE each spread in an 11 x 17 inch pouch, and DISPLAY as wanted.
Discover the captivating power of literature in Freedom to Read, a thought-provoking page-turner that celebrates the profound value of books and their transformative impact on young readers. With stunning oil pastel illustrations and a compelling storyline, children will easily be captivated by Amy's journey of self-discovery.
Imagine a world where books are forbidden, playing pretend is not allowed, and children are taught to only speak the truth. It's 2084 and this is Amy's world ... Or, at least it was Amy's world before she discovered a book and began to read.
Against the backdrop of the current climate in the United States, where the freedom to read faces unprecedented challenges, this 56-page extended picture book serves as a powerful tool to ignite discussions on the impact of book banning while nurturing a deep appreciation for the magic of storytelling. What if all books were forbidden? What if your school's library was locked? How far would you go to protect your right to read?
