These books are beautiful, I have some favourites for my girls that I will have to share with you. One is The Tree by Dana Lyons,
another is Brother Eagle Sister Sky by Susan Jeffers.
There are many more as well.
My girls do watch movies sometimes, one that is pretty recent is The song of the sea, it is an Irish animation that is beautifully done. Me and my 2 eldest love it .
Thank you for sharing! I think we saw Song of the Sea and unfortunately there was a very sad part in it that particularly affected my older son. (If I am thinking of the same film) Some kids are more effected than others when it comes to some things I suppose...
My boy also cried the first time we saw the film, when the mother vanishes in the sea! He just sobbed with tears for like half an hour, crying for "mommy!" even though his mother hugged him the whole time. But he was probably 3 then... Now at 5, he loves the movie and every time we watch it, he says to his little sister - now is the sad part, but don't cry, later they will find their mom, who is a magic seal!
If you enjoy this style of animation (I immensely do!), then you must see Tomm Moore's other movie - The Secret of Kells! Oh, and another one that's a visual feast and full of lessons to be learned is Mune!
OKay! Yes So I think I was remembering it correctly... That makes sense, I suppose he was much younger when we saw it. We will check out the other films you mentioned...Thanks!
