This half-term our theme is "Home and away". This topic is related to our core book "Lila and the secret of rain"
Lila and the Secret of the Rain is a beautifully illustrated children’s book by David Conway and Jude Daly that explores themes of resilience, community, and the importance of nature. The story follows Lila, a young girl living in a small Kenyan village suffering from a severe drought. Her village depends on rain for survival, and without it, the crops fail, and life becomes increasingly difficult. Lila learns of an ancient secret: if she tells the sky the saddest story she knows, the rain might return. Determined to save her people, she climbs a mountain and shares her heartfelt sorrow with the heavens. Through Lila's courage and empathy, the story weaves a touching narrative that emphasizes the connection between emotions, storytelling, and the natural world. It's a poignant tale that resonates with readers of all ages, enriched by its evocative language and vibrant illustrations.
