How to Have the Best School Year Ever

Pre-Order for December Delivery

How to Have the Best School Year Ever is a picture book by award-winning Australian author Jess Sanders and illustrator Andrea Onishi. Written for children heading into their first year of school, it is full of warmth, humour, and the kind of quiet reassurance that sticks with kids long after the last page.

Our first print run sold out much faster than we expected. A second, limited run arrives in our warehouse on 7 December and ships that week.

Exclusive to early learning centres as part of a graduation gifting pack. Custom softcover edition.
