A wonderfully funny new back-to-school title by Carey Armstrong-Ellis, illustrator of 12 Days of Kindergarten.

Seymour's family has recently moved to a new home near the compost pile and he is now facing his first day of Slug School. He's so nervous-he worries about being picked on and not being good at dodgeball. That night in bed he is surprised by a POOF! It's his Fairy Slugmother who appears to tell him she will be near tomorrow at school to help him with any trouble he might have. But the next day, instead of helping him, his Fairy Slugmother seems to only make matters worse by spilling dirt when they plant seeds for their science project and drawing pictures when she should be helping Seymour spell his name. By the time Seymour busies himself correcting his Fairy Slugmother, he realizes he has everything under control and has nothing to fear at school (well, except maybe dodgeball!).

With enchanting illustrations, Armstrong-Ellis uses humor and sensitivity to cheer kids on as they prepare to go back-to-school.
