Lockdown Looms by Banji Alexander
The COVID-19 pandemic has given children a window into a world they had never seen before or been exposed to. Finally, a vocabulary-rich, fictional text, written specifically to help children conceptualise everything they have experienced during the pandemic. Lockdown Looms: Reggie's Birthday Party is the first in the series written by author (and primary school teacher), Banji Alexander. A tale with the interwoven themes of resilience and kindness, Banji Alexander has written a book which can be enjoyed by all members of the family. A story which everyone can relate to, Alexander's mastery of the English language and rich vocabulary, coupled with colourful illustrations on every page, brings the story to life, leaving all readers, regardless of age, captivated and totally absorbed. *** With his eighth birthday just around the corner, the very thought of having to celebrate his special day during lockdown sends poor Reggie into a meltdown. Of course, home-schooling during the COVID-19 pandemic will come with its highs and lows. Bzzzzaaappp! Bzzzzaaappp! An unexpected radio announcement might just change everything. Lockdown looms!
