review 1: “ A Bit Lost” is a children’s book aimed towards EYFS and key stage one. The story follows a baby owl who falls out of his nest and can’t find his mum. The little owl then comes across a squirrel that befriends him and tries to help little owl find his mother. Little owl tries to describe his mother by giving certain characteristics such as “big eyes like mine” but squirrel keeps finding other animals with these characteristics but who are not little owls mother. The book is a great read and has excellent illustrations. The book had the children in fits of laughter. It can teach children about helping each other and could be used in Literacy when describing characters helping their descriptions to be good enough that someone could not be confused, like squirrel... more. It could even be used for children to remember a time when they may have possibly been lost and the feelings they felt in order to relate to the story.
review 2: One of the best things about this picture book is the facial expressions of the characters. A baby owl falls out of the nest while sleeping, and a squirrel attempt to assist the owl in finding its mother throughout the book. Each page feature the own describing the mother, followed by a page of an animal with ears, eyes, size of its body, or other features that match the baby's description. And each animal is looking straight at the reader, as if to ask, "Am I really an owl?" The simplicity of the narrative, the brevity of the story, and the facial expressions of each character make this book a perfect selection for storytime. less
