About This Book
A parent or educator would reach for this guide after reading "Papa, Do You Love Me?" to help a child more deeply explore its message of unconditional love and cultural richness. This is not a storybook, but a short, targeted teaching guide designed as a companion to the original picture book. It provides discussion prompts and activity ideas that reinforce the story’s central themes of family security, paternal love, and self-confidence, all within the specific cultural context of the Maasai people of East Africa. For children ages 3 to 6, this guide helps transform a beloved story into an interactive learning experience. It's an excellent choice for an adult who wants to go beyond the text, offering a structured framework to facilitate meaningful conversations about emotional security and to introduce a child to a culture different from their own in a respectful and engaging way.
