Why do we have to go there? How will we get there? What do we need to take? Who will we meet, and what will we do when we're there?

Bright, friendly illustrations bring the story to life alongside clear, simple text that never feels overwhelming.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book introduces the people children will meet at school - teachers, teaching assistants, and new friends - and walks through a typical school day, from arrival and assembly to lessons, lunchtime, playtime and going home again. It also offers practical, comforting tips on making friends, coping with new feelings, and settling into a new routine. Interactive Usborne Quicklinks give access to further online resources, and there are dedicated notes for grown-ups packed with advice on preparing a child for their first day, making this just as useful for parents and carers as it is for the child reading it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether a child is excited, nervous, or a mix of both, this book gives them the vocabulary and confidence to talk about starting school openly, turning uncertainty into anticipation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnswers every common question a child has about starting school\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes Usborne Quicklinks for further online information\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandy notes for grown-ups on preparing children for their first day\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilds essential vocabulary around school and routines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEncourages open conversation about feelings and new experiences\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports the early years curriculum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFelicity Brooks has worked for Usborne for over 30 years and has written and edited hundreds of titles, covering everything from tractors to genetics, Shakespeare to mental health, and plenty of sparkly unicorns.
