This consoling book, designed to help kids through their first-day-of-school jitters, serves a real, comforting, tear-saving purpose.

ANNOTATION

When a group of children prepares for and experiences the first day of kindergarten, the parents are the ones who have trouble adjusting.

FROM THE PUBLISHER

'Twas the night before kindergarten, and as they prepared,
kids were excited,
and a little bit scared.

It's the first day of school! Join the kids as they prepare for kindergarten, packing school supplies, posing for pictures, and the hardest part of all-saying goodbye to Mom and Dad. But maybe it won't be so hard once they discover just how much fun kindergarten really is! Colorful illustrations illuminate this uplifting takeoff on the classic Clement C. Moore Christmas poem.
