A Special Story: Lubna and the Pebble

 

This beautifully illustrated story of friendship and kindness in an uncertain time subtly addresses the refugee crisis in a manner  accessible to young children.  As we’ve come to expect from our brilliant little people, the Hedgehogs and Squirrels responded to the book with huge empathy, curiosity and understanding.  The children took on ownership of their pebbles and made them beautiful new homes. They all wrote fantastic versions of the story themselves and we are immensely proud of their work.  

 

“Lubna and the Pebble is a really good book because it’s all about friendship.” Ted 

 

“Lubna lived in the World of Tents because her home wasn’t safe. At the end Daddy found a new home for them.” Bess

 

“My story was about a girl that found a gem in a cave. She gave it to her friend Hattie.” Matilda

 

“We built pebble homes. We used cardboard and tape. Our house will protect our pebble and keep it warm.” Luka
