About this item

A sensitive story about the fear of the new, perfect for the first day of schoolThe big day has come—and that can be terrifying. Sometimes the only thing to do is hide behind a scary mask and hope it frightens the monsters away. But snapping and snarling isn't always the best way. Perhaps a friendly smiling mask might work better. This lovely story about learning to be brave teaches children to face their fears with a smile instead of a frown.
