There was once a cheeky little rabbit. You might know him already. When his mother told him, "Simon, tomorrow is your first day of school!" he replied,"I'm not going."

Author Biography

Stephanie Blake's passion for writing and illustrating began in childhood when she created books for her brothers and sisters as birthday presents. As a child, she also fell in love with the books of Dr. Seuss, Ludwig Bemelmans, and William Steig. After moving to France, she discovered other writers and artists whose work continued to inspire her stories and drawings. She is the author and illustrator of dozens of highly successful books in France, many of them children's favorites.

Reviews

"Will tackle nerves head on as the little rabbit Simon (of bestselling Poo Bum fame) heads off for his first day." -- The Telegraph (UK) "Full of bright illustrations, large text ... great for kids who are having a hard time adjusting to the idea of starting pre-school or school." -- CHILD Magazine (AU) "Bright colours and giant text make it a visual treat and Blake's wobbly drawings could inspire little ones to copy her style ... Simon is a brilliant character that deserves to reach a wide audience." -- Booktrust (UK) "Will tackle nerves head on as the little rabbit Simon (of bestselling Poo Bum fame) heads off for his first day." -- The Telegraph (UK) "Full of bright illustrations, large text ... great for kids who are having a hard time adjusting to the idea of starting pre-school or school." -- CHILD Magazine (AU) "Bright colours and giant text make it a visual treat and Blake's wobbly drawings could inspire little ones to copy her style ...
