Butterflies in My Stomach and Other School Hazards

(4) K-3 A boy faces his fears, expressed as figures of speech, on his first day of school. Though the language conceit doesn't work seamlessly, clear presentation will help readers see the humor of having a "long face" or being "all ears," as captured in tableaux of simple pen-and-ink line illustrations and color photographs.
