A Jurassic-themed, rhyming picture book for children starting school!
All through the land, little dinos were stirring. They opened their eyes and their brains started whirring. The BIG day is here! they thought in a hurry . . . They leapt with excitement and trembled with worry.
Jewel the dinosaur is very nervous about her first day of school. There are so many new dinos to meet, the cafeteria is noisy, and her new classroom is so big!
But as the day goes on, and Jewel settles into her new class and makes new friends, she realizes that school isn't that scary after all.
With adorable illustrations by Loretta Schauer and rhyming, reassuring text, this fun starting-school picture book will encourage young readers to explore their own feelings or nerves around this big milestone so they can have a roar-some first day, too!
Samantha Meredith graduated from Loughborough University in 2001 with BA (Hons) Illustration. She worked as a designer at Usborne Publishing for five years, before making the scary move into freelancing.
At the last count, Samantha has illustrated over 200 books for clients, mostly in children's publishing, including Ladybird Books, Scholastic, Campbell Books and Bloomsbury. Her time is fairly evenly split between working and snacking!
Rose is a children's author and editor with ten years' experience working in publishing. She lives near Gatwick with her husband.
