Many handle the topic of school anxiety and I think those are the great tools for kids that are not eager to separate or are natural worriers.
I Don’t Want to Go To School! By Stephanie Blake is a funny little book that deals with the big issue of not wanting to go to school. Maisy Goes to Preschool: A Maisy First Experiences Book First Day Jitters First Year Letters My Preschool.
