To me home represents, or should represent; warmth, security, toys, holding hands, being held. School is a strange and new place for a child. Will it be a happy place? There are new people, a teacher, classmates - will they be friendly? I believe the passage from home to school is the second biggest trauma of childhood; the first is, of course, being born. Indeed, in both cases we leave a place of warmth and protection for one that is unknown. The unknown often brings fear with it. In my books I try to counteract this fear, to replace it with a positive message. I believe that children are naturally creative and eager to learn. I want to show them that learning is really both fascinating and fun.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTarget Age: 0-3\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePhilomel Books\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePub Date: \u003cspan\u003eMarch 23, 1994\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eboardbook ISBN: \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e9780399226908\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e0.7\" H x 4.9\" L x 7.1\" W, 13 pages\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ehardcover ISBN: \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e9780399208539\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e0.43\" H x 8.48\" L x 12.02\" W, 32 pages\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"board book","offer_id":37647465283770,"sku":"9780399226908","price":10.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"hardcover","offer_id":37647465316538,"sku":"9780399208539","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0444\/2213\/5968\/files\/cat_c8e2f9a4-df2b-49a6-ac77-f7e54d16e10f.jpg?v=1713490941"},{"product_id":"little-cloud-by-eric-carle","title":"Little Cloud by Eric Carle","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAt last!
