Llama Llama experiences separation anxiety on his first day of nursery school.

When Nancy's parents win an all-expenses-paid vacation, Nancy and JoJo get to sleep over at their neighbor's home, Mrs. DeVine's. But JoJo is a little nervous to sleep at someone else's house -- luckily Nancy is an expert on sleepovers and can help prepare her little sister. The big night arrives, and JoJo and Nancy have a blast at Mrs. DeVine's. But when it's time for bed, it turns out Nancy wasn't as prepared as she thought. Good thing there is...

"Each night after school, your dad tucks you in tight. He reads about trucks, turns on your night light. But sometimes for work, your daddy's away. You miss him so much more than you can say. Why can't he be home? When will he come back? Use this sweet rhyming picture book the next time they miss you"--Back cover.

When their old green car has trouble starting one morning, Matthew worries that Daddy won't be able to pick him up from school at the end of the day. To allay his fears, Daddy comes up with a fanciful list of all the ways he might fetch Matthew: He'll ride the neighbor's red tractor. He'll be carried by Matthew's big teddy bear. He'll ask the birds in the trees to fly him to school! Now matter what, Daddy will always be there for Matthew.
