To ask questions that don’t have a straightforward answer and requires kids to think even harder might be even more of a challenge.

I can see where this would be helpful for parents or older children who may be introducing the book to a younger child. Whether these are there or not many parents will use them as a discussion after reading a book. I know my children and I had many discussion at the end of reading a book to them. It's how you teach provlem-solving and independent thought.Zain A Blade wrote: ↑11 Jul 2018, 14:35 I think adding points for lessons learned at the end of each section is a good idea, can help to bring things into perspective for reader.

I can't improve on this. That's my view as well.kfwilson6 wrote: ↑13 Jul 2018, 14:13 I think the lessons are meant to be subtle. Sort of a subliminal messaging type of thing, like when a character in a movie drinks a coke, you may not realize later what made you want a coke, but it was that image of it on the screen. It's not a right in your face sort of lesson. I like it without the questions. Questions can be added by the parent during shared reading time.

Should there be a section where the reader is asked to point out lessons learned or perhaps, in the end, asked whether Toni is a superhero and give reasons for the answer?
Would like to hear get comments on this.
A quetion and answer section would be welcome idea. The issue will be that the help of adults or older siblings will be needed.
There are simple lessons to point out. For example, the benefits of the variety of fruits on some pages.
Children can aked to either spell them out or simply colour them.

Quite true that it brings a clearer perpective to the children.
But we must forget that this not likely possible without guidance from the parents.To help explain this point and clear any area of confusion.

In a book where discussion is important, sure, I support the inclusion of questions. For this one, the discussion should be left to the parents to decide what and how much to discuss with their kids.
It is purposeful to see a book that tesches kids to read. However, it will require cooperation from parents in order to enforce this.
And I agreed that they must decide what parts and amount of time to discuss with their children
