When Emma moves to a new town, she's afraid she'll never make friends. She tries her hardest to make a good impression on her new classmates.

Filled with fun pictures and ideas, this story addresses the anxiety that comes with new beginnings and introduces kids to moving, making new friends, and starting at a new school.

This book also includes:
  • Step-by-step instructions for making a paper crane
  • 12 sheets of origami paper, so that kids can make their own cranes to share!
