100th Day Worries, a children's picture book about the 100th day of school

Simon & Schuster
In 100 Day Worries by Margery Cuyler, a little girl who is a worrier finds comfort in the love of her family. First grader Jessica worries all the time. She is not at all looking forward to reaching the 100th day of school. Instead, she is worried about what to take to school for the 100th day of school celebration.

When she can't figure out what to do, her whole family pitches in, providing her with sets of ten things, from ribbons to rocks. Jessica rushes off to school without counting everything, only to realize that she has only 90 things. Again, her loving family saves the day because Jessica finds a note from her mother with ten kisses (Xs) on it, giving her 10 sets of 10 - 100 things for the 100th day of school. I recommend this book for five and six year olds. Compare prices. (Simon & Schuster, 2000. ISBN: 0689829795)
