Book Reviews of The Night Before Kindergarten
Book Review: Perfection (With a Twist!)
Summary: 5 Stars
This will be a favorite storybook for younger children preparing for the first day at school! All over the town, there are children tossing and turning in their beds, worried about teachers, friends, leaving play and family behind, "while visions of school supplies danced in their heads."
Of course, all is well! The teacher is the best and it's the parents in the end who shed a tear or two as they leave their kindergarten scholars behind!
Kids will enjoy hearing this story over and over again! A really sweet read for parents and children!
Book Review: They read this book to Kindergarteners at our grade school.
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a great book to read to Kindergartens because they do read this book at our grade school. A previous reviewer complained that this book didn't fit her child because her child rode on the school bus, and this book showed parents dropping their children off. She could of just improvised. I do drive my kids to school everyday because we don't have school buses because our school is within 2 miles. This book is better than any other book out there. It's a cute book and I would recommend it.
I got mines on Ebay.
Book Review: Very Cute and Clever
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this book for my granddaughter and for a friend's child who is entering kindergarten. Loved the idea of making children aware that this is a big step for them but somewhat bitter-sweet for their parents. Mentioned leaving their baby things behind as they go into the big school world. Pictures were very up to date--clothes, backpacks, school supplies. Very well done. I would extend the age range for appropriate readership through kindergarten age and not limit it to preschool.Book Review: Shipping
Summary: 3 Stars
I received this book along with "countdown to Kindergarten" the shipping was 1 day faster than scheduled. So a big thumbs up! Just got done reading it to my daughter, she liked it more than the countdown book. But after I opened the package and scanned the book I found that it was damaged. The top right corner was rippled. Even though it is small it still hurts my feelings. I would have sent it back but figured I could deal with it. Other than that I think the book us cute. Recommend!Book Review: Fun book for new Kindergarteners
Summary: 4 Stars
I thought this was an excellent read for children about to enter Kindergarten...not every book has to be realistic, because, let's face it, Kindergarten can be scary to a 5 year old. I also purchased a number of other books for pre-K and read those, along with The Night Before Kindergarten, to my 5 year old. He particularly enjoyed this book, because it's easy to understand, the rhyming makes it fun and it ends with the grown-ups crying, which he thinks is very silly.
