First Grade Stinks!

This back-to-school tale is a humorous and relatable read for rising first graders and young children facing new experiences.

It's the first day of school, and Hayley is excited. Things are different now. She's a first grader!

Hayley quickly finds out that first grade is different from kindergarten, but in all the wrong ways. The classroom isn't as bright and colorful. Ms. Gray doesn't seem to smile as much as her kindergarten teacher did, and there isn't enough time to play outside. Finally, Hayley has had enough. "First grade stinks!" she shouts. And fortunately, her compassionate teacher completely understands.

Young readers will immediately empathize with Hayley as she struggles to find enthusiasm for her new school year. 2/4/2022
