First day critter jitters

"All of the animals are worried about the first day of school. Sloth is a fraid that he won't get there on time. Parrot has a tendency to repeat things, and doesn't want to annoy anyone. Snake can't figure out how to carry a backpack. But when they get to class for the first day, the critters are all surprised to find out that they aren't the only jittery ones, and that it's easier and more fun to face new things when you do it together"--Dust jacket.
