Inspired by a true story, Hoops dramatizes the historic struggle for gender equality in high school sports. Taking place in Wilkins in Indiana in 1976, it follows a group of teenagers who created one of the first high school girls basketball teams.
These board books are so adorable ! And they have a pop-up surprise at the end ! Colorful and joyful, they teach babies and toddlers about colors and numbers with the help of friendly animals. The art is beautiful, fun and attractive ! I hope they will do more books in this series !
What a great graphic novel ! I really love how Jonathan Hill uses science fiction to explore the themes of difference, fear of rejection and immigration. It is truly a very smart story : Identity is at the center of the plot, but in a very unexpected way.
Back to school time is around the corner ! It is an exciting period for some children and adults, but also a moment of fear and stressful anticipation for others. These great picture books help to prepare young readers for this great moment.
