Reha to the Rescue

‘Reha to the Rescue’ (2016) was my first ever picture book, and I completed it for Think Equal. It was written by Deshan Tennekoon and is a story about a young girl overcoming her fears to help a friend in need. It is currently being used in reception level curriculum and helps children with the following:

• Recognise various emotions
• Demonstrate various ways these emotions can be displayed (face, body etc)
• Understand that all creatures are important and can be cared for in safe ways
