BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3) - ESSENTIAL

AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH

Peanut Butter is nervous about the first day of school. His mother is encouraging, and he finds many enjoyable experiences through the support of his friends.

A fun book! It is level 2-I for Progressing Readers, so many younger children can read it by themselves. The illustrations are photos of ordinary objects with wire added to pose them in life-like ways. The characters are food! Really clever, and children will relate to the first-day-of-school jitters.
