## Description

Are you starting school? How exciting! Following a number of children's first experiences, this picture book takes children right from their very first day to the end of the school year. This reassuring read will support even the most nervous school-starter, exploring each emotion, from fear to excitement, with care. Ideal for starting conversations about any pre-school nerves, this timeless classic is packed with playful illustrations and easy to understand explanations. Starting School, one more Janet and Allan Ahlberg book that gets everything right . - The Guardian

Review: Great book. - I bought this for my grandson when he started school last year. He said he enjoyed. It helped him with his big day.
Review: Makes a great gift for new school-starters - Even though this was published in the 1980s, it still reflects school life in reception today. I’ve bought this for two friends whose children were starting school and they both said it helped ease their children’s nerves of what to expect at school. As a Year 1 teacher myself, I find the content is very child-friendly and inclusive, as well as still showing the way that schools (in England at least) operate in Reception.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic book
*by J***S on 22 June 2024*

Love this book. Perfect for any child starting school. It explains the transition into school for children that may be worried or need a little bit of reassurance. My child loved this book. He can’t wait to give it to his brother before he starts. It’s a brilliant book. I’ve bought it twice and even given it as a gift.
