About the story:
Join Bert and Betsie as they experience the magic of a traditional Christmas, told through their eyes. From the Christmas tree and presents to Santa and his reindeer, they explore the sights and surprises of the festive season, discovering why their home looks so different and what makes Christmas Day so special.
This paperback book includes:
- Simple bright illustrations, making the story easy to follow with or without the text.
- Large, easy-to-read text.
- A story written in rhyming couplets.
- Character descriptions to help the storyteller get in to role.
- Reading tips - simple - intermediate - challenging.
- Discussion notes - Explore what Bert and Betsie see and smell, including decorations and festive foods, and talk about the North Pole and taking turns to receive a gift. Use the story as an opportunity for listeners to share the celebrations that matter to them, how they decorate their homes and what they wear for special occasions. Encourage listening to one another and recognising that families may celebrate differently or may not celebrate Christmas.
- Extended discussions - Explore the similarities and differences between people: how we look, where we live, who we live with, the languages we speak, our accents and the foods we eat. Encourage listeners to share their own experiences, listen to others and appreciate different ways of life.
