Bibi Returns to School - Paperback

by Christiane N. Dunia (Author), Afton Jane (Illustrator)

After months in the hospital, eight-year-old Bibi can't wait to see her friends again. But as she gets ready for her first day back, her tummy flutters with nerves. What will her classmates think of her braces and the feeding tube in her nose? And will she ever catch up in math?

With gentle encouragement from her mom, a caring teacher, and kind friends, Bibi learns that asking for help is brave, and that confidence and friendship can grow, one small step at a time.

Inspired by a true story, Bibi Returns to School is a touching celebration of resilience, inclusion, and the power of community. Perfect for classroom read-alouds and family storytime, this uplifting book helps children understand and embrace differences. It is a reminder to each and every reader that we all learn and grow at our own pace.
