How to Start School
Norwegian title: Hvordan begynner man på skolen?
Starting school is a major event in children’s life. There’s a lot to cope with in practical, social and emotional terms, and it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. What do you have to put in your school bag? How long will you have to sit still? What really happens during break?
In How to Start School, Anna Fiske deals with big and small questions about starting school. The book is heart-warming, inclusive and takes children’s emotions seriously while easing fears about the huge transition from pre-school to first grade.
Anna Fiske received glowing reviews for How to Make a Baby and in this related book, she does what she knows best of all: talks to children on their own terms.
A must for all pre-schoolers!
