24.01.2022 GIVEAWAY. Dear Teachers and Teacher Librarians. Last month, I ran a giveaway to celebrate the one-year release of In the Shadow of an Elephant. ... This month, I've learned that In the Shadow of an Elephant has been shortlisted in the Speech Pathology Book of the Year Awards for 8-10 years. To celebrate this milestone, I'd love to give away some more copies to schools. Each copy will come with a comprehensive set of Teacher notes. In The Shadow Of An Elephant explores the bond between an orphaned elephant and a young African boy. Its powerful illustrations compliment the strong story telling that sensitively addresses poaching, friendship, loss, trust and life coming full circle. A thought-provoking story filled with content that will generate a variety of discussions both at home and in the classroom. 'I particularly love the lines, ‘Summer haze melted into winter rains. Months bled into years' Jacqueline Harvey 'Adore In The Shadow Of An Elephant - so beautiful! The grandsons will love it!!!' Jackie French To go into the draw to win a copy for your school, email ([email protected]) the name of your teacher librarian and the address of your school. https://www.georgiedonaghey.com.au//in-the-shadow-of-an-el

11.01.2022 For young readers, books are the conduit to values of inclusion, the environment, racism, disability, bullying, peace, family, mental health, gender, the great ...issues that impact their lives and the world. School librarians are the midwives delivering stories that matter to young people especially at this time. You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view... Until you climb inside of his skin and walk around in it. Atticus Finch. page 114 Chapter 16 in Being Jack (extract taken from Harper Lee’s, To Kill a Mockingbird) It is a privilege to address the State Librarian at the @School Library Association South Australia on 22nd September in the evening.

03.01.2022 New releases from our speakers. Congratulations, Karen Hendriks on the release of Go Away Foxy, Foxy. Velvet, Valentine, and Vanilla Bean, heard a rustling of leaves and the scraping of branches. Huddling together in their treehouse sleep-out... and listening hard, Velvet whisper-shouts - ‘Fox claws.’ What can the bunnies do to protect themselves? How can they work together to scare fox away? With wonderfully bright illustrations by Naomi Greaves, Go Away Foxy, Foxy is a beautifully told tale of how, when confronted with a situation, working together can solve a problem.
