Sick Day Jitters
What's Sick Day Jitters About
In this latest school adventure of the best-selling Jitters series, Mrs. Hartwell is out sick, so who will teach her class? Everyone has the jitters at the thought of a day without their favorite teacher! When the substitute teacher doesn’t show up, the other adults in the building pitch in. The art teacher runs a writing workshop, the school nurse teaches science, and the math teacher leads reading! Alternating perspectives show the day from the students’ point of view and from Mrs. Hartwell’s as the kids keep her informed through a flurry of humorous electronic updates. Modeling the importance of staying home when sick and resting to get better, this is a funny and heartwarming addition to the beloved series reminding readers that everyone gets the jitters.

The Creatives Behind the Book
After graduating from the University of Colorado, Boulder, Julie Danneberg became a teacher. In her classroom, she read many children’s books and witnessed the profound impact a good book can have on a child. “I was motivated to try and write books like the ones I enjoy reading.” Julie earned great success with First Day Jitters–the funny and engaging story of Sarah Jane Hartwell’s first day at a new school. The surprise ending charms and delights readers time and again. Teachers and students alike love these stories, and they are perennial favorites for back-to-school. Julie lives with her husband and two children in Denver. She teaches at a local middle school where she garners ideas for her books. When she’s not writing, Julie enjoys reading, quilting, gardening, and spending time with her family. Judy Love is a graduate of Rhode Island School of Design. She has illustrated numerous children’s books, including First Day Jitters and Last Day Blues by Julie Danneberg. She lives in North Carolina.
