My kids loved this, and it forces a deep conversation about differences in cultures, showing kindness no matter what. We loved this.

Much to talk about...,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Magic Tree: A Folktale from Nigeria (Hardcover)
A great story to read aloud to a class. The similarities to a Cinderella story lead to great discussion about how this story is different, and why it may be different. Use to discuss how you can discover the meaning of unfamiliar words (in this case many are Nigerian) using illustrations, patterns in the text, and surrounding sentences. The illustrations are beautiful and the lessons of community are excellent for starting many important classroom discussions.
