A perfect tale for those starting school in the near future.
Jellybean takes you on her first journey from home to her new
school. On the way, she experiences a range of emotions from
excitement to worry; feelings that all children have when they
start school. The events in the story mirror a traditional school
day to which children will be able to relate. Jellybean uses her
imagination to bring her learning to life and soon realises that
school is a fun place to be. So much so, that she is eager to go
back the following day! This story supports many discussions with
your child about their first day at school.
The illustrations are bold and colourful and depict both features
of everyday life and imagination. Children will be able to compare
their feelings and school day with Jellybean's, and, in turn,
develop an
understanding of the world around them.
