I Love You, Blue Kangaroo

I love You, Blue Kangaroo is a wonderful book for children to read. An interesting discussion came up amongst the teachers about the story as we exchanged ideas about what love is. Within its scope came forth more questions “What does it mean to be special? Is it okay to share the same space of specialness with another? If there are other people who are special to a loved one, does our specialness decrease? To be special, does it mean we have to be the only one?”

I Love You, Blue Kangaroo!

I Love You, Blue Kangaroo!

On a personal note, I remembered that to be special I had to be the only one. For instance, I found myself having a tantrum when I discovered my best friend had other best friends!  How can that be? Am I not enough?  Looking back, I had to smile ruefully at my definition of love and specialness.

Teacher Stella wrote a beautiful review about this book which you can read by clicking on this link:  I Love You, Blue Kangaroo By Emma Chichester Clark (a book review).  If you want to tackle a topic about love, or why your child has a special affinity with some toys this book is for you.
