We were challenged to come up with our own list of 10 picture books on a theme for August 10. Here is my ten. The books range from a loss of innocence to a loss of a loved one to a loss of a thing of value. Some are relatively new books. Most, though, are older books. I do this deliberately as I think sometimes we overlook the oldies but goodies/ Plus, many of the older books will be readily located in a school and/or public library.
TEN PICTURE BOOKS ON LOSS
1. THE WALL
2. I NEVER KNEW YOUR NAME
3. SOPHIE
4. THE LEGEND OF THE BLUEBONNET
5. GRANDPA'S SONG'
6. THE TENTH GOOD THING ABOUT BARNEY
7. GRANDPA GREEN
8. KNUFFLE BUNNY

10. BLUEBIRD
A lovely and thoughtful list.
