Description
School can be a very scary place, especially on the first day.
Quick Summary
The book takes first-day jitters and transforms them into hilariously monster-filled imagination adventures that kids absolutely devour. They will crack up at Hubie's wild fantasies about scary teachers and creature-filled classrooms while secretly feeling validated that their own nervous feelings are totally normal. If your kid loves the wacky humor and reassuring messages in "Dragons Love Tacos" or "The Day the Crayons Quit," they'll be begging for this one. Ideal for emerging readers in first and second grade, this short 547-word chapter book with an AR 2.9 level keeps kids laughing while building confidence.
