IMAGINATIONBOOKSSCIS “Set in an underprivileged society, two children discover a book lying in the dust. Dreary surrounds become magical senses of wonder, as the children's imagination transforms their reality. On their journey, they sail through dust, float in a teacup and ride atop a plastic bottle. The minimal text set among the whimsical illustrations reveals the magic of imagination that can stem from reading a book.”CBCA Shortlist 2012Teaching Noteshttp://www.lamontbooks.com.au/info/files/October%202011-%20Look%20a%20book_0.pdf

TITLE The RUNAWAY HUGAUTHOR/ILLUSTRATOR Nick Bland & Freya Blackwood.Publisher: Scholastic Press. Year: 2011 ISBN: 9781865044057Source of Life UnitsThemes/Messages

Level 1 : God : How do I know God Loves MeLevel 1 : Christian Life : I am Special, So are You.Echoing the Word June 2012 Vol. 11 No. 3, 2012 On Grace & Faith Reviews & Resources Children's Literature Jan Grajczonek “Oh dear. I only have one left. It’s my very last hug,” says Mummy to Lucy who has come for a hug before she goes to bed. “Thank you,” says Lucy. “I’ll bring it back as soon as I’m finished with it.” And with that Lucy runs off to find each and every member of the family with whom to share her mother’s last hug. All return the hug to Lucy in different ways: stronger, twice as big, and peanut buttery. However, Annie the dog escapes Lucy’s arms taking her Mummy’s very last hug with her. She tries to chase Annie who is just too fast. “Lucy felt terrible. She wanted to cry.” Whatever will Lucy do now? The Runaway Hug is a heart-warming story of belonging, being and becoming, of sharing love, and being part of a family. This book could initiate a wonderful kaleidoscope into family life as each child shares by way of stories, pictures, photos, experiences, collage, montage, diagrams and the like, what it means to be a family, to belong, emphasizing that there is no one ‘right’ way. What makes my family special?
