Synopsis:
When you wake up for school
you'll get dressed, really cool
with your sneakers and socks
and your lunch in a box . . .
Kindergarten's begun.
Big kids say that it's fun.
But is that really true?
Will it be fun . . . for you?
Celebrate all the familiar milestones and moments shared by every kid entering kindergarten in this charming second-person narrative. Whether it's early-morning jitters or becoming familiar with new classroom routines, this sweet and bouncy story will have expectant kindergarteners saying, "Kindergarten is cool!"
Two of my favorite five-year-olds were getting ready to start kindergarten when - oops! I realized I hadn’t done anything to help them celebrate. Oh, no! What could I do? I thought…and thought…and, at last, I wrote a story - for them and all new kindergartners, everywhere. I knew it was a good story when, after their first day of school, they both told me, "Wow! Kindergarten IS cool!”
