Today I Joined a Preschool, by Liza Martini

Jaxon is new in town and decides it is time to make friends and commence his education. While the other kids are set in their routines, Jaxon is left to figure things out on the fly, and divine some unusual playground traditions. But when curiosity compels him to cross a ponderous playground, he discovers a world of warm sand, an Arabian horse, and soon a new friend joins his Imaginate play and helps him navigate the remainder of the day.

Told with restraint, this story of a stoic little boy will show children that everyone feels this way at first. Today I Joined a Preschool builds courage and reassures children that they will figure it out, friends can be found, and parents will always return.
