Bøker av Sally Derby

In a unique narrative, readers meet a diverse group of six children ranging in age from Kindergarten through fifth grade. With nerves and excitement each child gears up for a new school year by hustling in the morning, meeting new teachers and new classmates during the day, and heading home with homework and relief by day's end. Simple, bright illustrations focus on each child and his/her worries, hopes, and successes on the first day of school.

Nonie''s had enough! Enough mushy mush for breakfast. Enough of her baby brother''s crying. So off she goes to live at Grandma''s house. No mush or baby there. Grandma attends to Nonie. Grandma takes her out into the world of grown-ups. After a day away from home, will Nonie reconsider her move and return to Momma, Daddy, and baby brother? Maybe . . . maybe . . . if she can make a deal about breakfast!
