Raisins she absolutely doesn't like.And why does everything at school involve so much waiting?At least there's recess!With a big personality and even bigger opinions, six-year-old Maya dramatically makes her way through a busy first-grade day filled with classmates, learning, laughter, art, music, recess, and plenty of surprises. She may complain about nearly everything along the way, but the colorful illustrations tell another story: Maya might be having a lot more fun than she's willing to admit.By the time the final bell rings and Maya makes it home, she is completely exhausted.
