Something Else, by Kathryn Cave


Synopsis: This is a simple story about a creature called Something Else who is excluded from his neighbour's activities because he behaves and looks different. But then when an even stranger creature tries to make friends with Something Else, he doesn't want to know, until he sees himself in the mirror.

Activity: Imagine a new friend is joining your class next week. This new friend is different from you (eg. a boy from South Africa). What are 2 things you could say to your new friend, and 2 actions you can take to befriend him?
