Hopeful

I’m hopeful my son will learn to like this book more. He will be starting preschool soon so I bought it as an introduction to it, but in all honesty he is very bored by this book.

My First Day of...

Not only did my boys love it as I try to prepare them for "Nursery School" I loved it as well. I think this book helps to prepare kids and parents for that "dreaded" day :-)

Ready for preschool and I can't wait!

We read this book substituting the word "preschool" where nursery school was used for a few weeks before my daughter started school. It helped to give her an understanding of what to expect. She still wants us to read this to her every day. It is such an adorable story with wonderful illustrations of children at preschool doing the typical activities of art projects, dancing, playing, snack and lunch time. We highly recommend this book.

Best of Show

My two-and-a-half year old just started preschool. I've looked at SO many books in this genre, and this one stands head-and-shoulders above the rest. What a lovely book!

Great book!

This book is wonderfully written and illustrated. My two-year-old daughter wants to read it again and again. I definitely think it helps prepare children for nursery school. Each time we read the book, my daughter and I discuss the fact that she'll be attending nursery school soon, just like the girl in the book. I'm planning to purchase a book for a good friend, whose daughter is also about to start attending nursery school.

My daughter loved it![..]

My 3 year-old loved this book. We read it to her just before starting preschool. She sat intently while I read the book to her. It acurately displays the conflicting feelings young children have when going to school. The excitement of playing with other children and doing new things and the fear of leaving mommy or daddy. It helped my daughter adjust to preschool. She still has me read it to her even though she has been in school for a few months.
