Getting Ready for Second Grade
About This Book
Oscar is about to start second grade, and he is nervous about it. His dad is there to talk him through the morning, and a few slow, deep breaths shared with a buddy help settle his nerves. By the time he walks into class, he is ready for whatever the day brings. Once he is inside, Oscar finds that second grade has plenty to look forward to, including a class pet. The story walks young listeners through what a first day can look like, so the real thing feels familiar when it arrives. It is written as a read-aloud, with a mix of humor and warmth that suits a parent or teacher sharing it with a child. The author, Vera Ahiyya, is a classroom teacher who goes by the Tutu Teacher, and her experience shapes how the book approaches back-to-school worries. It aims to leave children feeling capable and confident about new beginnings. The classroom and community in the pictures are diverse and lively. This book is part of the Getting Ready series, which also covers kindergarten, preschool, first grade, Valentine's Day and Halloween. This edition includes a press-out sign for first-day-of-school photos.
