This book is similar to first day jitters. It shows the teacher’s perspective and the student’s perspective on the first day of school. It was sweet and short for younger kids.

Bright and colorful, this easy reading story is about two characters, mouse and dinosaur, who are both about to start school. Each one is nervous the night before and the day of. Sharing their thoughts, they reach the school building and tell each other they'll be brave. What ends up happening will delight all readers, including the adults! Perfect for PreK, K, and first grades.

This is the perfect book for the first day (or night before the first day) of preschool of Kindergarten to help children understand that everyone including the teacher is feeling nervous too.

My kids loved the colorful illustrations and the story was the perfect length to hold the attention of my 3 year old. My 1st grader was happy she was able to read this book on her own too.

This is a really cute book. Perfect for preschoolers or kindergartners that are nervous for their first day of school.
Read with your children as a reminder that not only the kids, but also the teachers can sometimes be nervous about the first day and don’t know what to expect.
