窓ぎわのトットちゃん Totto-chan: The Little Girl at the Window
The true story of a small girl who did not fit an ordinary school, and the headmaster who built one that fit her — a train-car classroom where a child was met as she actually was.
Why it belongs It is the free edge as a school: read the grain of the child before deciding what she can hold. The card leads in Japanese because the display order is itself a statement about whose language leads.
- Attention and wonder
- Difference honored
- The table and the gathering
In Japanese, English, Vietnamese, Spanish audiobook
