Summary: One of the best books on setting your child's expectations
Comment: This is one of the best books I have seen that presents a clear, accurate, diverse picture of schooling.

Alicia and Robert present varied pictures of the school acclamation process. Alicia is outgoing and readily embraces learning new things. Still, though, she is somewhat apprehensive about making new friends and openly cries when she scraps her knee during recess. Robert, on the other hand, is cautious, reserved and does not immediately like school. Still, though, Robert finds a good friend in Alicia and understands he does not have to "break out of shell" so soon. In the end, Robert enjoys school and Alicia looks forward to going back to school after the holiday break.

I use the story characters in conversations with my daughter to gauge how school went on a particular day, "What kind of day did you have? Was today like a Robert day or an Alicia day?"
