Today at School with Yesterday and Tomorrow

Author: Jessica Young. Illustrator: Renee Kurilla

 

This charming picture book for ages 4-8 tells a heartwarming story about the first day of school, told from the perspective of two sisters- Yesterday (a bear), and Tomorrow (an owl), who have very different feelings about the upcoming first day of school. Yesterday prefers to take her time and reflect, while Tomorrow is excited to make new big plans. They meet a new friend, Today (a fox), who helps the sisters be present and enjoy the “now.” This is a lovely and encouraging story, particularly useful for children encountering a new and unfamiliar experience.
