Ploum Goes to Little Monsters School A gentle picture book about first school days, shyness, and kindness Meet Ploum, a small turquoise-blue monster with a soft heart, tiny horns... and a big dose of shyness. Today is a very special day: Ploum is going to school for the very first time. But when you love your glowing firefly cuddly toy more than anything, when talking to others feels scary, and when the world seems a little too big... school can feel like a magical mountain that's hard to climb. Luckily, Ploum soon discovers that a smile, a kind word, and a helping hand can turn fear into laughter - and new beginnings into wonderful adventures. Through gentle moments, playful classmates, and comforting discoveries, this story helps young children understand that being shy is okay, and that kindness is a true superpower.
