OFF THE SHELF--The Night Before Kindergarten


The Night Before Kindergarten (Reading Railroad Books Series) 
 Penguin, 2001

I bought this book when my son was about to enter kindergarten.  Since then, I have suggested it to every parent I know has a kid about to start school.  The poem shows kids getting their clothes and backpacks ready for the first day of school.  The first morning, they find the classroom to be fun and engaging while the parents wait anxiously in the hall.  A great way to help kids move smoothly into their first day of school, by calming their fears. 

Level:  K-1

  1. Did you see that there's a new The Night Before Kindergarten Sticker Stories book? Would make for a fun gift to pair the two. Thanks for the review and thanks for letting other parents know about the book.
