Maybe Later, Georgie is another sensitively written book by the author Luke Scriven. This time, the author turns his attention to the unbreakable bond between siblings. In the story, Georgie seems desperate for his brother's attention - remembering past times when he and Ed played the best games together. But is Ed...."growing up"?
Maybe Later, Georgie introduces the idea that although the relationships between siblings changes over time, when the goblins are there, your sibling will always have your back! A great story to help children understand that growing up can mean changes but, just because we grow up, it doesn't mean we don't care about the important things in life - family!
After reading this the children in my class were keen to discuss their older siblings and how they did or didn't play together.
