Tove Jansson’s much loved short story, The Invisible Child, is an important reminder of the power of caring, and it works beautifully as a vehicle for helping children learn about empathy and about how important it is to see and to be seen.
In the story War of the Clowns, Couto describes a knock-down, drag-out fight between two clowns in a town square.
