See You Later, Mom! — Jennifer Northway

William is very excited about his first day of preschool, but when he gets there it's a little bit scary. He doesn't feel like painting or playing or hanging out with the other children, so his mother stays with him. The next day, William and his mom notice another boy who's a little bit shy. As William and David's friendship grows, so does their confidence. At the end of the week, will the boys be able to say goodbye to their moms and join the fun? This gentle, reassuring story's appealing illustrations depict an ethnically diverse classroom.
