Presentation of the book “Tomás na escola dos grandes” (Tomás at the big kids' school), by Marisa Lemos with illustrations by Sofia Cardoso
School is starting and Tomás is going into first grade—the big kids' school. Everyone seems so excited, but he isn't... For him, “What does it mean to be a big kid? Will I have to stop playing? Will I have to read all the answers, like adults do? The big kids' school is scary!” Is it really?
In this session, we will accompany Tomás on an emotional journey, where each step is a new discovery. Because sometimes growing up is scary... but it brings many opportunities!
