Summary: Fun!
Comment: School is approaching and kids are getting nervous? Who will be my teacher? Who will I sit next to? Will I be able to bring my stuffed animal? This book deals with these questions and a lot more and does so with a great deal of humor. The illustrations are wonderful and the book is well written. I couldn't recommend a better book for kids about to go back to school. Buy it, your kids will love it. And if you're looking for other titles for your kids or teenagers don't miss: The Little Prince (Saint Exupery); The Butterfly (Jay Singh) and; (for you!) The Alchemist (Coelho).

Summary: Created Fears in my Happy Camper
Comment: I got this book to help my 5-year-old son transition to kindergarten. It was a mistake! The book starts out with a little girl saying that she is in big trouble because kindergarten starts in 10 days (and she doesn't know how to tie her shoes). Each turn of the page is one day closer to kindergarten and the little girl grows more and more concerned because she is convinced that no one will help her at school (because it is against the rules).
I did my best to explain to my son that the book was supposed to be funny and that there was nothing to worry about... The next day he broke into spontaneous crying (very unusual for my normally cheerful, confident little guy) because he didn't know how to tie his shoes. He thought the teachers were going to be mean and maybe he wasn't ready for kindergarten after all. Oh boy!
Instead of this book, take a look at "Miss Bindergarten gets ready for Kindergarten." It is a much sweeter book about how a teacher gets the classroom ready with bright colors, games, blocks, puzzles, and special treats for the kids. The fact that it is also an alphabet book is a bonus.

Summary: wonderful
Comment: By no means am I an expert on children's book, but this is one I would gladly read to my children (if I had any). This was a fun book to read and is assuredly a fun book for children to read. The book follows a young girl getting ready for kindergarten. She does not know how to tie her own shoes, and as everybody knows, the number one rule of kindergarten is that you must know how to tie your own shoes and you can't ask anyone. Ever. The illustrations in this book are perfect as the little girl addresses the reader directly. This should engage any children reading the book. Even better, the book uses humor to tell the story as the little girl tries to learn and get out of learning how to tie her own shoes.
This is a fun book and is perfect for children
