Back to School!

Reach for this book when your child is feeling those 'Sunday Scaries' about a new school year or a change in classroom. While many back to school books focus on the student's perspective, this charming story follows Mr. Peanuts and his friend Rosie as they prepare the classroom for a new group of faces. By seeing the work, care, and excitement that teachers put into the first day, children can shift their focus from their own nerves to the welcoming environment being created just for them. Ideal for children ages 3 to 7, this book uses real photography of wild squirrels in elaborate miniature sets to build a sense of wonder and humor. It highlights themes of teamwork and community helpers, making the transition to school feel like an invitation to a fun, organized adventure. It is a perfect choice for de-escalating anxiety through laughter and observation of the tiny, intricate details in each scene.
