The students are on their way\, on foot\, on bicycles\, and in cars and buses. Welcome\, everyone!\n\n \n\nKirkus Reviews says\, "Energetic\, instructive & endearing...book to spark conversations with kids about their own schools or to simply introduce them to the idea of attending school for the first time."\n\n \n\nMore About the Author: Janet Nolan loves the collaborative art of picture books and how a writer's words and an illustrator's art come together to create something magical.

Janet's recent books include Get Ready for School\, Seven and a Half Tons of Steel\, and PB&J Hooray! Janet lives in Oak Park\, Illinois. She has a B.A. from The Evergreen State College and a master's degree in urban planning and policy from the University of Illinois at Chicago.
