His legs get all shaky and he's too shy to speak. And it doesn't help that his classmate Tony always asks, "Is Henry going to barf?" Just in time, Henry's kind teacher comes to the rescue with a great plan for helping him overcome his fears. With bright, humorous illustrations and cheerful,...

The first day of kindergarten is finally here, and Henry can't wait to paint pictures, sing songs, and practice counting. When he gets to school, though, he's not so sure he's ready for kindergarten.

This gently humorous, encouraging story will give children about to enter kindergarten an extra boost of confidence.
