Have a young child that about to start pre-school or kindergarten at a new school?  Are they a bit nervous about making friends or facing this very big change?  Put them at ease and get them excited by reading them one of these four books before the big first day!

Maisy Goes To Preschool

This book by Lucy Cousins is a great way to show your child all of the fun they’re about to have, from story time to snack time and everywhere in-between

A Letter To My Teacher

School teachers will have some of the biggest influence on your child’s life, and this book about a former student thanking a teacher from her past and inspiring her to become a teacher herself is nothing short of heartwarming.

A Tiger Tail: (Or What Happened to Anya on Her First Day of School)

Who doesn’t have an embarrassing school story?  Chances are your child will have an embarrassing moment, too, but a read of this Mike Boldt story will help them with not sweating the small stuff.

Edda:  A Little Valkyrie’s First Day of School

Even Norse goddesses need to go to school and make friends!  In this Adam Auerbach book, Edda leaves her home of Asgard and heads to Earth on a quest to make friends.

Favorite part about "Back To School" time for blogger Erica Banas?  All the killer clothing sales for her ever-growing teenage stepson ...and maybe she picks up something for herself, too!

Erica Banas is a news blogger who's been covering the rock/classic rock world since 2014. The coolest event she's ever covered in person was the 2021 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony. (Sir Paul McCartney inducting Foo Fighters? C'mon now!) She's also well-versed in etiquette and extraordinarily nice. #TransRightsAreHumanRights
