Book Overview
"Hest and Barton treat their subject with understanding, compassion, and gentle humor... Don't miss out on this one." -SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL (starred review) It's the first day of kindergarten and Baby Duck's stomach is all jitters. She loves the important things inside her new school bag: her favorite book, a jam sandwich, a pad of paper, and a yellow pencil. But what if her teacher is mean? What if she won't have any fun? Or any friends? And who will buckle her new school shoes? As always, Grandpa Duck knows just what to say and do to help Baby Duck feel braver. From the Trade Paperback edition.

Like Hest's other books, this is a crowd pleaser. I just got done using this in our first August storytime and it was very well received by the 3s-6s. I heard lots of giggles because some of the dialogue is so dead-on accurate. I recommend this to all those parents with a tentative child about to enter the halls of learning.
