Butterflies on the First Day of School

What a cute book! Looking forward to reading it to my class!

This story was so sweet - my daughter loved it (especially reading it just before school started this year) and I really enjoyed it, too. The illustrations are very beautiful, too.

Perfect story to help calm my students nerves on the first day of school.

This is a sweet story about the first day of school. I added some activities about butterflies and it became something I will do again and again.

Love this book. Used it in my education classes for high school students. They loved it.

Butterflies on the First Day of School just arrived and is a crowd pleaser. I read this aloud to my daughters and their friend, who happens to be very quiet and timid. She was smiling along with my girls, and I have the sense that she really understood little Rosie. Annie Silvestro’s books, all of them, are beautiful, fun, sweet and witty all at once - no easy feat! Her mastery of language and ability to make her characters come to life are remarkable. For any child who is anxious about the first day of school or anything else, this is your book! I just love the last page when the mother’s true feelings are expressed. We’ve all been there!

The book is nicely done. It's got somethings that are creative and nice for a book collector. I like the idea that the author is trying to get across.

The media could not be loaded. We love a book that has a true storyline and this one is perfect. Addresses first day jitters, leaving a sibling at home and puts a positive twist on them. Works well for any grade level, but we are looking forward to reading in anticipation of starting kindergarten and leaving a sister at home. Also has bright, colorful illustrations! The corner of ours was a little damaged but that didn’t impact reading.
