“Momma, I don’t want to start kindergarten today, “whimpered Libby.
“Why not?” Mother asked.
“I don’t know…My backpack is ready to go, but I’m not. My hands are wet and sticky and my throat feels like there’s toast stuck in it!”.

I just came across this book “Hands as Warm as Toast” yesterday when we were at the store and it is an amazing book about a kindergarten girl who was a little nervous and anxious about starting school. It warms my heart to read about teachers who have made transitions easy for their students when they realize it’s a little more difficult for some students. I love this book…even though Sydney is in Grade 1 I’d read this too her time and time again.
