A touching, helpful story that tackles the school anxieties that so
many young children face when starting kindergarten.
School is right around the corner, but Martin isn't feeling very excited
to begin kindergarten. His little sister, on the other hand, wishes she
had a chance to pack a backpack, play ball with all her friends, and
have teachers read stories to her. "He's so lucky!" she exclaims.
Gently, Martin's mother helps him overcome his anxieties as she prepares
him for what school will be like. By the time summer is over, Martin is
feeling more confident than ever that school is the right place for a
big kid like him.
