I Love You, Blue Kangaroo!

Product Information

In mooie aquarelkleuren wordt een verhaal verteld van milieuvervuiling in zee. Je ziet in het water allerhande kleurige vissen en andere dieren zwemmen zoals kwallen of een zeester. Aan het kleurgebruik van de zee is af te lezen of het water kalm, onstuimig of vervuild is. De mimiek van Jonas, walvis Blauw en zelfs van de vissen wordt weergegeven door een enkel lijntje waardoor emotie is te herkennen. De enorme berg plastic tassen die je ziet als de walvis zijn mond opendoet spreekt tot de verbeelding van jonge kinderen. Het geeft de ‘plastic soep’ goed weer die er in een oceaan drijft. Oplettende kleuters zien ook op eerdere spreads plastic tussen de vissen zweven. Deze beelden geven opening tot een gesprek over afval en het milieu, maar ook over vriendschap. In het nawoord geeft de auteur een toelichting en tips om zeeën en walvissen te redden. De enkele terugkerende details in de illustraties maken het af. I Love You, Blue Kangaroo! is one of Chichester Clark’s most successful books and was shortlisted for the Kate Greenaway medal in 1998. It is the first of her Blue Kangaroo series, which use Lily’s relationship with her blue kangaroo to describe the everyday ups and downs of being a small child.
