Celebrate every moment with the Night Before series by Natasha Wing! It's the night before preschool, and a little boy named Billy is so nervous he can't fall asleep. The friends he makes the next day at school give him a reason not to sleep the next night, either: he's too excited about going back! It's the first day of school! Join the kids as they prepare for kindergarten, packing school supplies, posing for pictures, and the hardest part of all—saying good-bye to Mom and Dad. But it won't be hard once they discover how fun kindergarten is! Get ready for a major milestone: kindergarten graduation! Of course, there's a lot of preparation the night before as kids prepare for the momentous occasion. It's the night before the Big Day—first grade. Penny is excited to start the year with her best friend right beside her in the same classroom. It's the night before a young boy's first day of second grade, and he's excited. He's spent all summer reading and preparing for the year ahead, and he can't wait to learn more about what fun surprises second grade has to offer.

From the Author

Starting preschool has its own challenges, so I wanted to capture the worries and excitements of being in a new situation. I love Amy Wummer's illustrations! Kids can be assured that preschool is a fun place to be.

This book is such a fun intro to preschool! My kids actually love all of the books in this “collection”. They are fun to read; they have a great rhythm to them while making new and sometimes nervous situations easier for their little minds to digest. The common thread of the books even adds to the easing of the nerves for a new experience to come!

This book was initially given to us as a gift from a friend for my toddler’s 3rd birthday. He loves this book so much and asks for it by name. So when his cousin turned 3 a few months later, I had to get it for his cousin. They love it to. It’s super cute and very relatable for any toddler going to preschool. Highly recommend this book for any toddler going to preschool! Super cute and fun and encouraging.
