What would Llama like to do?
Llama Llama feels so new . . .
It’s Llama Llama’s first day of preschool, and Mama Llama helps to make sure he is ready. Together they meet the teachers, see other children, and look at all the books and games. But then it’s time for Mama Llama to leave for work, and suddenly, Llama Llama isn’t as excited for the rest of his school day. Will Mama Llama come back?
Of course she will! But in the meantime, Llama Llama’s new classmates show him just how much fun school can be!
Complete with short, simple rhyming text and charming illustrations, this delightful picture book introduces young readers to the school day with confidence, kindness, and excitement.
Anna Dewdney was a teacher, mother, and enthusiastic proponent of reading aloud to children. She continually honed her skills as an artist and writer and published her first Llama Llama book in 2005. Her passion for creating extended to home and garden and she lovingly restored an 18th century farmhouse in southern Vermont. She wrote, painted, gardened, and lived there with her partner, Reed, her two daughters, two wirehaired pointing griffons, and one bulldog. Anna passed away in 2016, but her spirit will live on in her books.
