Reach for this book when your child is struggling to contain their 'big energy' or 'first day jitters' that manifest as impulsive behavior. It is a perfect choice for the preschooler who gets so excited they might accidentally knock things over, shout, or invade personal space without meaning to cause harm. Sammy the Shark is thrilled to start school, but every time he gets excited, he accidentally bites things: his alarm clock, the school bus, and even his teacher. Through Sammy's hilarious mistakes and the gentle corrections from his teacher, the story explores themes of self-control, making amends, and understanding that it is okay to be enthusiastic as long as we are mindful of others. It offers a lighthearted way to discuss school rules and the importance of taking a deep breath when feelings get too big to handle.
