What to Do When I Get Back from School gives your little one a better story - one they'll want to live.
Follow Caleb, a bright and lovable boy, through his after-school afternoon as he discovers that coming home isn't the end of the day - it's the beginning of something meaningful. Step by step, Mom guides him through simple, powerful habits: hanging up his backpack, putting away his shoes, washing his hands, eating a healthy snack, sharing about his day, resting, doing his homework, reading, helping with chores, moving his body, and ending the evening with family warmth and gratitude.
Each small choice Caleb makes builds something big - responsibility, self-discipline, kindness, and a heart full of pride.
Written in simple, confidence-building sentences perfect for ages 4 and up, this beautifully illustrated story speaks directly to your child's heart. It doesn't lecture. It doesn't nag. It simply shows - through Caleb's eyes - that routines feel good, helping feels good, and trying your best feels the best of all.
Whether you're building a new routine from scratch or simply reinforcing the one you already love, this book does the heavy lifting for you. Read it once and your child will ask for it again - and then start hanging up their bag without being asked.
Because the best habits don't start with a chore chart.
They start with a story.
Bedtime reading, back-to-school season, classroom libraries, and any parent who wants their child to grow up responsible, grateful, and kind - one afternoon at a time.
