Soon Mom Will Be Back

The book, Soon Mom Will Be Back, illustrates the intricate relationship between the child, the parents, and the teacher on the first day of school. The classroom environment may have great influence over the parents, but for children, they only see that they are being left by their parents in a strange new place. Seeing through the child's eyes, the teacher must find a way to connect and build trust and attachment. This book is especially important for parents, grandparents, family members, and caregivers of children starting school. This story is illustrated by Maggie along with Sydney Bass, a former student and a current Montessori middle schooler. B.
