About This Book
Reach for this book when your little one is expressing 'first day jitters' or clinging to your leg at the preschool gate. It is designed for children who find transitions difficult or who have a vivid imagination that sometimes creates 'scary' scenarios about the unknown. Daisy Dragon Goes to School follows a young dragon who is quite worried about leaving home, but soon discovers that the classroom is a place of magic, friendship, and discovery. By using a dragon protagonist, the story creates a safe emotional distance for children to process their own anxieties while seeing them reflected in a brave, relatable character. This is an ideal choice for the 3 to 6 age group to normalize the mix of fear and excitement that comes with starting school.
