1) Paperback Book First Day Jitters by Charlesbridge Publishing. The book arrived quickly and was exactly as described. My class enjoyed the story. It was very cute and funny.¤ 2) Paperback Book First Day Jitters by Charlesbridge Publishing. we got the book in great shape and in great time. Good book for my daughters first day of school.¤ 3) Paperback Book First Day Jitters by Charlesbridge Publishing. My nieces haven´t read this one yet.
The book runs through the excuses Sarah makes to avoid going to her new school (note that she´s nervous about switching schools), and she´s steadily cajoled into the front of the class where our Surprise! Announcement! reveals (and I admit, I was surprised - this is really well-done) that she´s the teacher.
Well, no doubt teachers do get nervous on the first day of school, same as anybody else does :) Kids are likely to be surprised and laugh at the ending too, maybe even not believe it.
I do find it a little off-putting that Sarah´s husband and boss essentially talk to her (and, in the beginning, treat her) like she´s a child, but that´s necessary to make the reveal an actual surprise.
I found the conversation between Sarah and the other characters to be very realistic (maybe a little less so for an adult, but, remember, we have to be surprised at the end), just like the conversations I had with my parents as a kid about school some days.¤ 4) Paperback Book First Day Jitters by Charlesbridge Publishing. Bought this book for my grandchild who was transferring from a private school to public school. This funny story helped ease her mind about the change.¤ 5) Paperback Book First Day Jitters by Charlesbridge Publishing. Sarah is a scared, tense person who is going to her first day of school. She
doesn´t want to go to school because she is so nervous about the students in the school. So she tries to do everything to avoid from getting out of bed but nothing works. What I liked most about this book was that it was funny, had great pictures, and it´s surprise ending. I would recommend this book to teachers, parents, and friends.¤ 6) Paperback Book First Day Jitters by Charlesbridge Publishing. First Day Jitters¤ Page Updated: Robert N.
