Pensacola-Ferry Pass-Brent, FL (1888PressRelease) May 27, 2026 - Starting a new school is a “BIG” deal for little kids, but a local author is turning those first day nerves into a shared adventure.

Christine Kapanga is proud to announce the debut of her latest children’s book, Conner’s Adventure: New School… BIG
Jitters!

The story follows Conner as he navigates the relatable anxieties, or “jitters,” of transitioning to a different school: not knowing anyone, meeting a new teacher, and having a new schedule.

By using relatable examples drawn from her children’s own experiences starting kindergarten, the story provides families with a gentle roadmap for discussing big emotions.

“Watching my 6-year-old son process his own jitters about starting kindergarten inspired me to create our newest book,” said Christine Kapanga. “We hope this story helps other families realize that every ‘new’ beginning is just the start of a fun adventure.”
