Carol Gray
Comic Strip Conversations

This book combines stick-figures with conversation symbols to illustrate what people say and think during conversations.

Showing what people are thinking reinforces that others have independent thoughts a concept spectrum children don t intuitively understand.

Children can also recognise that, although people say one thing, they may think something quite different another concept foreign to concrete-thinking children.

Children can draw their own comic strips to show what they are thinking and feeling about events or people.

Different colours can represent different states of mind.

These deceptively simple comic strips can reveal as well as convey quite a lot of substantive information.
