100th Day Worries - 00:10:32
The 100th day of school is approaching, and Jessica’s teacher wants each of the children to bring in a collection of 100 things. Jessica worries about everything, and now she has something new to worry about!
First Grade Takes a Test - 00:09:24
When the principal sends a lady to administer a test to the first grade class, the children find that none of the proffered answers are exactly right and they have trouble with the test. Fortunately, their teacher knows what is really important: being creative and being a good friend, positive traits that a standardized exam cannot test for. This is a great book to remind people that doing well on a test is not all that matters in the classroom.

Morgie and Moffie can’t wait to start school! By the end of the week Morgie and Moffie help each other to understand that it’s important to get gold stars and make new friends.
Stop, Drop and Roll - 00:11:49
Jessica has always been a worrier, and learning about fire safety is making her more nervous than ever. However, our favorite worrywart is about to discover that knowing what to do in an emergency is the best (and only) way to extinguish her fire-safety fears!
Trouble in the Barkers' Class - 00:13:26
Moffie and Morgie are excited. A new girl is joining their class. But Carole Ann is a bully, pushing Moffie and grabbing Morgie’s dinosaur book, and that’s only the beginning. Then Morgie goes looking for dinosaur eggs on a Saturday morning and finds Carole Ann crying. He discovers why she is so unhappy, and at school, Morgie introduces his new friend. Carole Ann tells everyone how sorry she is for being so nasty. Now everyone has a friend, and school is fun again!
Mr. Ouchy's First Day - 00:12:02
Mr. Ouchy is nervous about his first day of school... even though he’s the teacher! Will his students like him? Will he be able to find the bathroom? What if he can’t remember his students’ names? Fortunately, his classroom keeps him busy; his students have plenty of their own questions, and the first day of school turns into a great day discussing things like Mr. Ouchy’s funny name, how long a minute really lasts, and what everyone wants to learn in the upcoming year - things like whistling, playing drums and drawing dinosaurs.
First Grade Stinks - 00:10:56
Hayley quickly finds out that first grade is different from kindergarten, but in all the wrong ways! The classroom isn't as bright and colorful. Ms. Gray doesn't seem to smile as much as her kindergarten teacher Ms. Lacey did. The work is hard and there isn't enough time to play outside. Worst of all, her best friend Ryan says he likes first grade! Finally, Hayley has had enough. "First grade stinks!" she shouts. The classroom is suddenly very quiet. "You're in trouble now," Ryan whispers. But to Hayley's surprise Ms. Gray doesn't look mad at all.
