About this title

Review

"Moving house, taking an airplane trip, and beginning a new sport can be a potentially stressful experiences for a child. This set, designed to help early readers cope with a variety of 'firsts, ' features bright and appealing photographs accompanied by very simple text. Each volume contains a chapter introducing the experience, followed by a discussion of the supplies and equipment required. A useful picture glossary is included as well as additional suggested reading. Helpful critical thinking questions are also interspersed throughout the text, serving as a way to involve children in these life-altering changes and as a bibliotherapeutic impetus for conversations between children and adults. VERDICT A useful tool to assist little ones coping with new and unfamiliar life experiences."--School Library Journal
