As a mother of 3, a grandmother of 8, and a retired teacher who spent nearly 30 years teaching preschool, first grade, and second grade, Anne "Gigi" McCrory has seen her fair share of First Days of School. As a parent and a grandparent, she's managed the countless supply checklists, calmed the jitters, and answered the questions that always seem to crop up before children fall asleep: What should I wear? Who will play with me? What if I don't know where to go? As a teacher, she also knows the months of detailed preparation, involving many dedicated, caring people behind the scenes, that it takes to get Ready For the First Day of School. She is hopeful that her readers are comforted by this story and have many GREAT First Days of School!! Anne Gigi McCrory enjoys the many hats she wears, (mother, wife, teacher, Gigi and now traveler and published author, illustrator) and looks forward to providing a collection of books for the purpose of helping parents and teachers assist children through transitional times AND for the pure enjoyment of reading! Check out her first book "When Someday Comes" for more comforting support.
