• First Fears
• I remember my first day of school. My big sister
  Judy walked me to the door of the kindergarten
  classroom. I had never been so nervous in my
  life. I had butterflies in my stomach. My knees
  felt wobbly.
• What if no one likes me? I said. What if I
  dont know where to sit? What if I cant remember
  my teachers name?
• Judy smiled. I guess she was remembering what it
  was like when she started kindergarten. She was
  probably remembering how she had been scared, too.

  Youre a big kid now, Henry. You can do it!
• Judy opened the tall wooden door and pointed the
  way in. As I stood in the doorway. I felt her
  hand on my back. Judy has already done this, I
  thought to myself. And she loves school.
