Mike Roe- Gracie’s First Day
Gracie’s First Day is a fun, rhyming book for ages 3-7 that children will be excited to read over and over. The story follows Gracie through her first day of school where she navigates emotional responses throughout her day. The book deals with common situations children may encounter throughout their time in school. It encourages children to think about how they respond when things don’t go quite as expected. So many books teach adults how to adjust our mindset to have a better life. Through Gracie they are bringing those concepts to our youth. Children do not often get to choose what activity comes next in their school day, but they can absolutely choose how they respond to the situations that arise.
Beth Runkle- Author
