The Night Before Kindergarten Review
kids were excited, and a little bit scared. It's the first day of school! Join the kids as they prepare for kindergarten, packing school supplies, posing for pictures, and the hardest part of all-saying goodbye to Mom and Dad. But maybe it won't be so hard once they discover just how much fun kindergarten really is! Colorful illustrations illuminate this uplifting takeoff on the classic Clement C. Moore Christmas poem. User Submitted The Night Before Kindergarten ReviewsJune 28, 2008 Perfect for our pre-K graduate! Our soon to be kindergartener loves this book and often asks it to be read to her. It's a really cute story with fun illustrations. October 2, 2007 Perfection (With a Twist!) 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! September 13, 2007 The Night Before Kindergarten This was a GREAT book for children starting Kindergarten. My daughter was wondering why all the parents were crying at the end of the book. I guess you just have to be a parent to understand! :0) September 3, 2007 Portrays Kindergarten as a scary place I do not recommend because it essentially presupposes that kindergarten is a scary place and that you only need to overcome your fears when entering this frightening place. That's how it seemed to me, at least. Instead of describing kindergarten as a fun, happy, loving place, it talks about how children are at first afraid, but then learn to like it. Why even suggest that your child should be afraid? Worse, in the book, all the parents stay in the classroom, outside the door watching. That's not how school works. The parents are not there, so why suggest that they are going to be at the door looking in during the day? Not recommended. The other "night before" books I like, just not this one. August 26, 2007 Excellent Encouragement for Parents & Kids! This was supposed to be a gift for a friend's birthday party which became a second gift and of course one for my very own little girl who will be entering kindergarten now in a matter of days! A wonderful, heart felt book...not too long, just right to capture the hearts and minds of parents and kids alike! Highly recommend! A+!! August 5, 2007 If only I had these books when my children... Another book my granddaughter loved. She starts Kindergarden this week and I bought all these books several months ago to prepare her. Then, her school had "Kindergarden Camp" and I donated the books to their little library. The teachers were thrilled. Great book! January 31, 2007 Very cute! This book was really cute, both my kindergartner and I loved it. We've read it several times now, and I'm sure my other little one will love it when its her time. January 3, 2007 Good book to help your new kindergartner adjust I bought this for my daughter the month before she started kindergarten and I think it helped ease some nerves about what to expect at "big kids school". We have bought several of "The Night Before" books and we really enjoy them. November 4, 2006 Cute Book I bought this for my son. He was a little nervous about starting Kindergarten, but this book was so cute it put all his fears to rest. This is a great book for the night before kindergarten. November 2, 2006 Nice ice breaker This was a great story to read the night before school started. My daughter felt more at ease once we had talked about the different worries that all kids have.
