Stuart Goes to School

"[An] excellent sequel to
Stuart's Cape. . . Precocious readers looking for clever and unusual situations will not be disappointed. Hilarious." -
Kirkus Reviews (starred review)


Our favorite worrier is back, and Stuart is about to start third grade. As he makes his way to the first day of school, wearing the worst outfit ever, what could a first-rate worrier do but worry?



Stuart worries about getting stuck in the boys' bathroom, about not having anything to show for show-and-tell, but most of all, about not making any friends. With his cape, though, Stuart is bound to have a day full of wacky adventures.



"This humorous fantasy perfectly captures the child's-eye view of elementary-school life. . . Young readers are sure to identify with Stuart's persistent quest to find his place in the classroom society." -
School Library Journal






"[A] wryly funny mix of the real and the magical, enhanced by Matje's quirky line art." -
