The four books in the image above are part of the First Time series, which chronicles "firsts" in the life of totz. The illustrations are childlike and very cute! The story moves along at a quick pace, almost as if we're listening in on conversations between totz, or overhearing their thoughts as they experience a first day at nursery school. For instance, this is the text at the bottom of a 2-page spread where kids are in the play area:
Oh no! I've spilt it! Watch out!
I like this crown. Can I be a nurse?
This device is a clever way of make readertotz feel part of the school scene as they read and may very well make them more comfy on their first day of nursery school!
