This Small Blue Dot (Hardback)

This one is difficult to squash into a topic, which is part of why we like it. It’s about being human, imagination, difference, connection, growing up and the strange little things that make life on Earth rather wonderful.

A little more about this book

A little girl welcomes a new baby to Earth and shares some of what she’s figured out so far. Her tour takes in everything from imagination and growing up to food, family, beauty and our place on this planet.

Helpful when

Talking about belonging, identity, the wider world, growing up and the things that connect us, or when you want a book that simply invites bigger conversations.

How to use at home

Don’t try to unpack every idea in one read. Let your child stop where something catches them. This is a particularly good book for seeing which completely unexpected thought they decide is the important one.

Recommended age

Preschool (4-6 years), Early primary (6-8 years) en Growing readers & learners (8+ years)

How we found it

A strange, clever, beautifully illustrated book that didn’t fit neatly into one box. Naturally, that made us want it even more.
