Little Beaver and the Echo

Product Information

This sweet, gentle tale is beautifully complemented by Fox-Davies's softly glowing landscapes and winsome furry characters--reminiscent of Garth Williams's. This story was told as narrative based on a tale of a beaver who was lonely and heard a voice across the water. Continuing to read to your child, even when they’re able to read, will give you both a chance to talk about more complicated books and continue the beautiful relationship you started together 5 years ago. At the end of their journey the creatures meet a wise old beaver, who explains the mystery voice to them: ``No matter where you are, the Echo is always across the pond from you.

No matter where you are, the Echo is always across the pond from you … When you are sad, the Echo is sad.

With a strong main message around the book (there are always people to be friends with you don’t have to be lonely) it could be used cross-curricular with English and certainly PSHE.

I really like Little Beaver and The Echo, it has such and simple message that can convey so many feelings that many in the class both teacher and pupils will have experienced more than once in their life. Little Beaver feels a little less lonely now, and sets off in his boat to befriend the lonely individual across the pond. Her works include Little Beaver and the Echo, which has been translated into many languages around the world, and Rachel Fister's Blister. They can be told from the mouth of the story teller, but still using speech and varying punctuation; but also keeping a story that flows, having a mixture of speech and narrative. Part of the Little Beaver books by Amy McDonald, this story proves pop psychology wrong again: that someone who sounds like an echo.I've had this book since I was a child, I believe my Mum bought it before my older sisters were born and we've had the same copy of the book ever since.

I spent only about ten minutes on the beginning and middle of the story – and the rest of the time on the ending.
