This resource contains differentiated cross-curricular activities, primarily for secondary schools and adaptable to use as part of a whole school core book project involving ideas to support:
- Literacy and English

The content of Shaun Tan's book can be quite challenging, containing themes of forced migration, so any project work should be undertaken sensitively.
