Who Will Go to Kindergarten Today?

Reach for this book when your child is experiencing those first-day jitters or suddenly decides they would rather stay home in their pajamas than go to school. It is a gentle, imaginative story about Sam, who decides his stuffed monkey, Timbo, should go to kindergarten in his place. Through the process of explaining the school day to Timbo, Sam reminds himself of all the fun and friendship he would be missing. This book is perfect for preschoolers and kindergartners (ages 3 to 6) because it uses play-based logic to address separation anxiety. It allows children to project their fears onto a toy, making the transition feel safer and more manageable while validating their desire for independence.
