Raven's First Day Book One in the "Survival Guide of the Awkward Critters" Series Starting over is never easy-especially when you're the new kid in a school where everyone else already belongs. Meet Raven, a quiet and thoughtful newcomer to V.J. Elementary. She's smart, observant, and brave in ways she doesn't even realize-but on her first day in a new town, all she wants to do is disappear. From awkward classroom moments to sitting alone at lunch, Raven watches from the sidelines as other kids-like the effortlessly cool Shelly, the ever-smiling Finn, the popular Willow, and the hilarious Ziggy-seem to glide through the day. But what Raven doesn't know yet is something all kids eventually learn: No one is exactly what they seem on the outside. Everyone-yes, even the confident ones-carries their own worries, fears, and insecurities. Raven's First Day is the first book in the "Survival Guide of the Awkward Critters" series, a heartfelt collection that reminds young readers that everyone feels out of place sometimes. Through each book in the series, readers will discover the hidden stories behind every smile-and learn that friendship often begins when we realize we're not so different after all. Perfect for readers ages 6-15 who've ever felt unsure, unseen, or like they didn't quite fit in.
