In challenging times, children need to learn to be resilient and this book is a perfect introduction for children to learn about adapting and facing difficulties with confidence.
Square is perfect at the start of the book with four corners and straight lines, until someone rips it up, punches holes in it, shreds it, snips bits away etc. At each challenge Square remodels itself; when poked full of holes it turns in to a babbling fountain and when torn in to scraps it turns in to a flower garden.
This book is truly inspirational and I am using it in KS2 classes to teach children to think creatively and find solutions when things go wrong.
