"B" Is for Betsy (Odyssey Classic)

School is going to be terrible! Betsy doesn't know much, but she knows THAT. It's the first day of first grade, and Old Ned has told her stories about how horrible school was for him. But it turns out Old Ned is wrong: Betsy's teacher, Miss Grey, is nice, and the friends Betsy makes, Ellen and Billy, are even nicer. What with all the fun Betsy has and the things she learns - about tadpoles and the true meaning of Thanksgiving and much more - school might turn out to be one of her very favorite places! Ages 6 to 10.
