Beginning readers will love this warm introduction to all the excitement and uncertainty of starting kindergarten. From the team who wrote and illustrated The Best Seat in Second Grade, this prequel is a heartfelt story that's perfect for all children getting ready for kindergarten and other big early steps.

It's Sam's first day of kindergarten, and he's not so sure what to expect. Sam's teacher, Ms. Tate, takes the class on a nature walk, and at the very end, everyone gets to show off what they found Sam makes new friends when he helps everyone find interesting things for show-and-tell.
