Skolestartboka (norwegian)
Skolestartboka is a book about one of life's most important transitions, where 5- and 6-year-olds move from a familiar and safe environment to something new, bigger, and different from what they are used to. The book provides insight into what school beginners can expect, from the budding excitement to the moment they stand in the schoolyard, dressed in new clothes, ready to meet the principal and teacher amidst the bustle of children they may not know yet.
With engaging "seek and find" tasks linked to the illustrations, along with factual information and relevant questions, this book encourages conversation and reflection about starting school. It helps children become familiar with the school environment before their first day, potentially offering a greater sense of security. The book also introduces new concepts and encourages curiosity and learning.
