It is the first day at nursery school for the little girl in the story and she is feeling nervous. When her mum leaves, she wants her back. But gradually the lure of all the fun activities (dancing, sticking, painting, snack time and playing with friends) is enough to captivate her. By the end of the session, she is reluctant to go home! She can’t wait to return for her second day. A simple and attractive book which should appeal to young children. It acknowledges common apprehensions and reassures the child being read to.
