It was the first day of school at Desert Bloom Elementary, and the Cacti Kids were ready for a brand-new adventure! With backpacks packed and hearts full of questions, they set out to meet their teacher, explore the classroom, and make new friends. Through songs, stories, counting, and art, the Cacti Kids discovered that trying something new could be exciting, and even a little silly! This gentle, rhyming story celebrates kindness, courage, and the joy of learning, reminding young readers that every first day is full of possibility. Perfect for first-day jitters, classroom read-alouds, and early readers finding their way...one step, one smile, and a rhyme at a time.
