School's First Day (Adam Rex)

Great book for the first day of school. We could talk about feeling nervous, talk about how to help others that are feeling nervous, etc. Sometimes kids are surprised to hear that teachers are nervous too. Who would have thought of a school feeling nervous?

Goodreads summary:

It's the first day of school at Frederick Douglass Elementary and everyone's just a little bit nervous, especially the school itself. What will the children do once they come? Will they like the school? Will they be nice to him?

The school has a rough start, but as the day goes on, he soon recovers when he sees that he's not the only one going through first-day jitters.
