September is the time of year when many children are starting new nurseries or schools and sharing books about what to expect can be a great way to reassure any anxieties they may have. Our Beanstalk Brilliant Book of the Month is ‘The Tour at School’ by Katie Clapham, illustrated by Nadia Shireen who is kindly hosting an event for our Beanstalk School later in the month.

We’ve also chosen a selection of other Beanstalk Brilliant Books for children of all ages dealing with starting a new nursery or school which you’ll find below.

About the book

‘The Tour at School’ by Katie Clapham, illustrated by Nadia Shireen

The hilarious and heartfelt debut picture book from Katie Clapham, illustrated by Nadia Shireen – creator of the bestselling, highly acclaimed Grimwood series and Barbara Throws a Wobbler – will help kids feel better about those first-day-at-school nerves, as well as encouraging all children to create a safe and welcoming space for others.

Because, really, starting school can be scary. And being a New Kid in a new school can also be very scary. Luckily, this book will help soothe first-day nerves, make kids feel excited about the challenge and also show children how to be the PERFECT Tour Guide and make any New Kid feel right at home. And did we mention this book is very funny? Because it really is.
