It’s Just So… by Brenda Faatz and Peter Trimarco takes readers on a light-hearted
journey through that most dreaded of scenarios – the first day at a new school.
For
our young heroine, Lizzy, everything seems just so overwhelming. The bus is just so TALL. The school is just so
BIG. The books are just so WORDY. But as Lizzy warms to the challenge, she
discovers that addition and subtraction are MATHEMAGICAL, art is COLORIFIC, and
her geography lesson on Australia is just so WOMBATTY! In fact, her day has turned out to be “just
so fantastical, explorational, colorifical, animalogical – EPIC!”
Lizzy
is a charming role model who is willing to take the initiative and her heroism
is rooted in her bravery and determination in facing her fears. Her hopeful
story is both entertaining and inspiring for any child facing a new challenge
whether it is changing schools or encountering other life changes.
