A late-summer send-off with school on the horizon

August is preparing for the first day of school while still enjoying the closing days of summer with friends. New supplies, a backpack, and a haircut mark the change of season, but practical preparations do not erase his worries: he wonders about growing too tall and what his new teacher will be like. The story connects end-of-summer traditions with the familiar uncertainty of starting a new school year, framing August’s concerns alongside the excitement of getting ready.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children approaching a new school year
