Book description
If your child's stomach is doing somersaults about starting school, this audiobook is like a warm, reassuring hug from a friend who truly gets it. Julie Danneberg's First Day Jitters isn't just a book-it's a gentle, voice-to-ear companion for little ones facing that first-day anxiety. The narrator's calm, gentle tone perfectly mirrors Sarah Jane's journey: her nervous "sinking feeling" when she worries about being unknown at school, the quiet hope as Mr. Hartwell encourages her, and the joyful relief when she realizes everyone feels that flutter in their chest. You can almost hear Sarah Jane's shaky breaths soften into a smile as she makes friends with Mrs. Burton-because the audio version makes her emotions feel real, safe, and utterly normal.
What makes this audiobook magic? It's not just the story-it's how the voice holds the listener. The pacing is unhurried, like a teacher sitting beside a child, whispering, "It's okay to feel this way." You'll hear the subtle shift in the narrator's voice when Sarah Jane finally laughs, or when the surprise ending reveals her classmates' own quiet jitters-they're all feeling it too. Teachers and parents have called it a "classroom read-aloud gold," and now, hearing it narrated with such warmth, you understand why. It's not about fixing anxiety; it's about saying, "You're not alone," in a way kids can truly feel. For kindergarteners through third graders, this isn't just a story-it's a moment of shared understanding that turns fear into confidence, one calm sentence at a time. Perfect for bedtime, car rides, or quiet moments before school starts, this audiobook wraps your child in the comforting knowledge that first-day nerves are universal, temporary, and absolutely okay. It's the quiet confidence they need to step into that classroom, ready to say, "I've got this."
