The Night Before First Grade (Night Before)

Description
It's the night before the Big Day--first grade. Penny is excited to start the year with her best friend right beside her in the same classroom. This humorous take on Clement C. Moore's classic tale has a perfect twist ending that will surprise readers--as well as the "heroine" of the story--and help all about-to-be first-graders through their own back-to-school jitters.
