Review:
This book takes tells a different kind of first day of school story. Normally books with this theme tend to center on the main character and focus on that characters struggle to overcome their shyness or nervousness on the first day of school. This book presents us with a main character who far from being afraid or nervous is very confident in herself, and shows how that character helps a fellow classmate. I applaud the author for doing this. It teaches children that not everyone is ready at the same time and that you should help each other rather than alienate that person.
The book is a beguinners level book ( 1st to 2nd grade ) . It has chapters but is also illustrated with only a few lines per page.
The genre is folktale. Eeven tough the characters are animals the setting and the story is very realistic. ( )
