Find out how butterflies in your tummy are a good thing in this fresh take on being nervous for the first day of school.(goodreads summary)
Here is a heart warming book to help with those first day of school jitters. The giant-sized butterflies kids experience may take over just like the little girl has in this book. It offers a reassuring tone that those butterflies are normal and happen to everyone, including grown-ups. Finding a way to understand and channel those feelings of nervousness can help guide them through many first times. I liked how her classmates all had butterflies too showing that you are not alone in how you feel. The story is sweet and simple with beautiful illustrations and colors. It could be read one-on-one with your child before their first day or in a classroom setting with many students on the first day of school. A wonderful encouraging book to help calm flutters in the tummy. Everyone feels the same flutters in their tummy too but it just might be a good thing ready to guide you through a new experience. I think this is a "just right book" for ages 4-7.~
