Go back to school for second grade—and get ready to go with these fun and silly poems! Now includes a sheet of stickers!

D. J. Steinberg's heartfelt, relatable, and silly poems bring to life the highlights of second grade—reading those big-kid books, trying out for the school play, and even dance breaks to wiggle "arms and legs and kaboodles. . . like a big bunch of second-grade noodles!" Covering an entire school year of holidays, memorable moments, and important life lessons, this is perfect for soon-to-be second graders!

Steinberg may look like a grownup, but on the inside, he's actually just an oversized kid who likes to write books about all the big and little moments of growing up.  He has published over 20 books including graphic novels, picture books, board books and early readers.  You can find out more about his popular "Here I Come!" series of rhyming books for all occasions wherever books are sold, and you can check out more about D.J. online at www.djsteinberg.com.
