Description

Toby's sister and baby brother love their schools - they smell of paint and rainbows. Toby doesn't think he likes his new school at all - it smells of ogres and he's lonely. He looks and looks for friends but he can't find any anywhere. He finds an alien, a mermaid, a dinosaur expert and a pirate, but no friends! When his mum comes to pick him up he tells her the sad news - but if he didn't make any friends then who is in the playground waving at him..? Rebecca Elliott's charming Toby books help children deal with new and unfamiliar circumstances.

My 4 year old granddaughter and I have read this book together this afternoon and she 'very much enjoyed it. She will be starting school in September so I am sure we will be coming back to it again to encourage talking about her feeling relating to this very exciting but scary time for her. I think the publication date is well timed and I would have no hesitation in recommending this book to parents of new starters. Many thanks for this ARC.

What an adorable little book! I loved the imaginative illustrations. Beginning the first year of school can be quite intimidating, especially when the child has no idea of what to expect. I would recommend this book for all parents with pre-school children as well as placed in kindergarden bookshelves.
