ECMS Educator Kirsten from Oakhill Kindergarten in Reservoir tells us about one of the children’s favourite books, 'Do Not Open This Book' by local comedian Andy Lee. 

What’s Do Not Open This Book about? 

It's a very funny book. On each page, the book says "Do not open this book!" And it talks about the different faces and different emotions. 

What do children learn by reading this book? 

It teaches children about lots of different emotions.   
It also teaches children about talking to each other in nice words and about identity, language and communication. 

What do children love about this book? 

The children think the book is funny. One little girl said she loves all the different faces in the book and how they were red and blue.
