"Children will enjoy reading about Henry’s first day of school and seeing how he maintains his individuality and makes new friends."—School Library Journal
"An offbeat and empathetic take on handling first-day-of-school anxieties."
—Kirkus Reviews“The third-person narrative excels at representing the child’s viewpoint.... Pilutti’s bright, lively illustrations were created with gouache, wax pastels, and 'a bit of digital painting.' A playful picture book focusing on the first-day-of-school theme.”—Booklist
“[This story] displays the great respect and care with which Pilutti depicts this specific child’s experience… A picture book that should definitely “go to school,” to the library, to homes, and to wherever apprehensive kids and their peers may be.”—Horn Book
