The Night Before First Grade
It's the night before the Big Day-first grade! Penny is excited to start the year with her best friend right beside her in the same classroom. This humorous take on Clement C. Moores classic tale has a perfect twist ending that will surprise readers as well as the "heroine" of the story and help all about-to-be first-graders through their own back-to-school jitters.

We’ve purchased The Night Before Preschool and The Night Before Kindergarten, so when my son saw this book arrive, he couldn’t wait to read it. The books do a great job at addressing fears related to the first day of school. I highly recommend getting these books.

This series is seriously the best books for children. We’ve enjoyed this one and the kindergarten book. We also have multiple holiday ones. Highly recommend!

We are obsessed with "The Night before" series! We have every single one accept summer camp and Hanukkah and SADLY Night before the New Baby. We wanted that one so bad when we had our second daughter but everywhere it was for sale it was stupid expensive and all used. We have never paid of $5 at most for our books brand new. We are about to pre order the groundhog day one! We love love love this series! Can't wait to see what comes in the future!

This rhyming book is perfect for back to school! I love the storyline about two friends starting first grade and realising they would not be in the same class. They were sad and nervous at first but they were able to make new friends and still have a great first day of school. It's a great story to help kids ease back into school and remind them that everything will be ok even if things are not what they expect.

The daughter of a friend of mine starts first grade next week. I thought she would like this little book. As a teacher of elementary school children, I would recommend this little book for children who have anxiety about starting a new year. After all, first graders are still very young learners.
