Abby's First Day
A tender, beautifully illustrated story about courage, connection, and the quiet magic of being seen.
Abby wakes up on the morning of her very first day of school with fluttering in her tummy and a wish to stay nestled in her cozy bed. Everything feels a little too big, a little too loud, and a little too new. But with gentle encouragement—and a sprinkle of starlight—Abby discovers that bravery doesn’t mean having no fear. It means feeling the fear and choosing to take that first step anyway.
Co-authored by Mother / Daughter - Peggy J. Kan Hai, Ph.D., and Ka'ewa Kan Hai.
