This is a great story with a biracial couple and their granddaughter. The cool thing is that it doesn‘t center race as the story, but rather feelings. I did buy this one. Anyone have book recs for a biracial 6 year old??
Review: The hello, Goodbye Window by Norton Juster, 2005, is a Caldecott Winner about a young girl visiting her grandparents and their magic window. It has beautiful abstract illustrations.
Blurb: I would use this book in my classroom for a read aloud, and follow up with apart project. Letting children create the characters in the story as their own family.
Quote: “That's the Hello, Goodbye Window. It looks like a regular window but it's not.“
I would use this in my classroom because the children can relate to the relationship they have with someone.
This is a good traditional literature book for children. This book can be pretty relatable to kids. The theme of the story is about the loving relationship a young girl has with her grandparents and that is expressed through the illustrations too.
I would use this in a future classroom because the images would engage the children with how interesting the illustrations are & the children would really engage with the story itself.
This book was a great traditional literature book. One way it meets criteria is that the story represents cultural norms and is not re-written to white Anglo-European conventions. Also, the illustrations really add to the story because of the way the artist draws the item and characters very loosely. This meaning that the bodies do not have clear outlines but you can tell what the images are.
This book is a Caldecott Award Winner (published 2005). I enjoyed this book because for me it brought back a sense of nostalgia, but for children this can just bring happiness whether the student think about their times with family, friends, or guardians.
I think the illustrations are very unique, and intricate. I had never seen illustrations like this before, but I hope to see more.
