This bestselling title--which has sold more than 225,000 copies in paperback--is now available in a jacketed hardcover edition! At just $12.99, it's the perfect gift for young children starting school for the very first time. 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! The book's simple rhyming text and sweet illustrations will soothe any child's fears about the first day of school.
