Isobel Hates Change

Author: Marcela FerreiraIllustrator: Mark Chambers

Isobel loves the familiar rhythm of school: being welcomed by Miss Parker, seeing Lilian, maths lessons and tending to the classroom stick insects. But when a supply teacher arrives, changes to her routine leave her feeling unsettled. A wonderful picture book, particulary for supporting neurodiverse readers, which features a diverse cast of children. A warm, reassuring story shows that change can be positive and necessary, just like the changing seasons!
