Little Turtle resists every step of getting ready for the first day of school, from new shoes to new friends. But as the day unfolds, familiar comforts and small discoveries ease the transition. Yim’s repetitive structure mirrors a child’s thought patterns, while soft, textured illustrations add warmth and approachability. VERDICT A reassuring pick for little ones facing new beginnings, perfect for school readiness shelves.
