Patchy and His Emu Chicks

By Paulet Facey and Lisa-Joy Facey

The book Patchy and His Emu Chicks highlights patterns, as well as diversity. The author cleverly juxtaposes similarities and differences of four flightless exotic birds and several pattern fabrics. Central to the story is the importance of accepting individuals regardless of their uniqueness because each one is special. This is an enjoyable children’s story with numerous teaching points, including word families, comparing and contrasting, homonyms, affixes, and fresh vocabulary.
