Jay's First Day at School

About the Book

Do I have to take a nap? Will Mommy remember to pick me up? Do I have to go again after the first day? Will my teacher be nice? These were some of Jay's questions and fears about starting kindergarten.

About the Author

As a former 6th grade public school teacher, I have always been interested in elementary school children. A co-worker told me of her son Jay's anxiety about starting kindergarten. I wrote this book to give him a positive picture of what that first day would be like. Jay was going to attend a parochial school in East Los Angeles. I have lived in South Pasadena for over 40 years and have three adult children.
