Dax and Zoe are twins. They go together like peanut butter and jelly. It's the night before the twins are starting kindergarten, and they have the just-about-to-start-school jitters. After all, they will be in different classrooms! What will kindergarten be like when they're not together all day? But Dax and Zoe will learn that kindergarten is full of new surprises and adventures, and being apart for a short while isn't so bad.
From author Nikki Ehrlich and artist Zoey Abbott Wagner comes a heartwarming picture book that's perfect for anyone dealing with new experiences, especially little ones getting ready for school.
"The twins make friends and acclimate to new routines once they get to school, and at recess, Zoe and Dax are together again 'like peanut butter and jelly.' Working in soft colored pencil, debut illustrator Abbott’s understated images feel airy and open, and she emphasizes not just the closeness between the twins but also the way they seem to trade off feeling confident and nervous about school. Though not all siblings will be as mutually adoring as Dax and Zoe are, newcomer Ehrlich leaves readers with the comforting idea that just because one thing changes doesn’t mean that everything has to." — Publishers Weekly
