In this first-day-of-school story, young Migs learns lessons about over-coming shyness, respecting others’ space, making amends, and making friends.  At first he’s so shy he doesn’t want to go to school, but the dress-up corner helps him create a super-hero costume that helps boost his nerve.  Unfortunately, he feels so powerful he starts racing around the room, ends up crashing into another student and destroying his artwork.  His first attempts to fix the tear just make things worse and worse, and Migs resorts to hiding again, but then he enlists the help of other students to bring the ruined artwork to life, breaking the ice with all, so that in the end he’s eager to return.  The illustrations are bright and cheerful; the problems are ones many kids can relate to.  The rhyming text is occasionally stilted, but generally works.
