librarianryan 's review for:

First Day of School by Esther Van Den Berg
4.0
medium-paced

 What I like about this book is first the color and fun artwork, but more that there is no fear.  Robin doesn’t want to go to school, but they are not afraid to go to school.  Then they get so involved in what is going on in class they don’t want to go home.  This book is not saying “don’t be afraid, school is fun” it’s just saying that there is lots to do and you might enjoy it if you give it a chance.  Just like this book.
