The first day of school and all its excitement, challenges, and yes, anxieties, are celebrated here in connected haiku poems. A diverse cast of characters all start--and finish--their first days of school, and have experiences that all children will relate to.
With gorgeous multimedia paintings-and-collages by acclaimed artist Mary GrandPre, this promises to be an evergreen gift for children about to take the big leap into their first days of school.
