First Day, Hooray!

June Sobel, Nabila Adani (Illustrated by)

There's a lot to check off on the back-to-school list. Lunch box? Check. Notebook? Paper? Glue Stick? Check. Check. Check. But school supplies aren't the only things we bring with us. We also bring along our FEELINGS! Follow along as a class of young children learns to identify and process the wide array of feelings they meet on the first day of school. Say “hello” to HAPPY, soothe ANGER, jump with EXCITED, and shout HOORAY when a fun day comes to an end. Inspired by the way educators talk about emotions and build emotional literacy with young children, this rhyming picture book encourages readers to observe and name their feelings and use them to their advantage.
