- Reviewed in the United States on September 30, 2024My kiddo loves Llama Llama books, but this one was particularly helpful since she is going into preschool and will have similar experiences there as in the book. I have read it over and over again to her which helps and is a cute story. Anyone with a toddler or new kid going to school for the first time, this is great.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 3, 2024My 4 year old loves all the Llama llama looks! Great rhyming, good message, and short enough to keep a toddlers attention.

- Reviewed in the United States on March 1, 2023We love the Llama llama series and this book we read again and again in the days leading up to 1st day of preschool, also during the 1st week of school. It is very relatable for a nervous toddler and she still picks this book for bedtime some nights.
