| PreSchool-K Imaginative, spirited Annalina narrates a month of days in her life, beginning with the day before she starts kindergarten. What makes this book special is that the author doesn't deliver a long list of Annalina's misgivings, which often give young readers extra fodder to stress about. This child simply says that she likes preschool and thinks Big School might be filled with Big Kids (What if they're mean?). The next thing readers see, there she is in room 2K, where a diverse group of children smile, wave, and look a little sleepy. Hardly anybody cried. In the following entries, the youngsters learn that the teacher isn't scary, that kindergarteners have their very own playground, that sharing is not only possible but also fun, and that nice things happen every day. The background for each page resembles the paper children use to practice their first writing white with widely spaced, light blue straight and dotted lines. Realistic and gorgeously patterned collage items outlined in black are mingled with simple paintings to create an explosion of color, shape, and texture. The narrative and illustrations are gently funny and filled with little details and jokes, enabling children to find something new with each reading. Kindergarten Diary holds its own amid an impressive assortment of cheery salves for pre-K nerves. Susan Weitz, formerly at Spencer-Van Etten School District, Spencer, NY

Cayden: "In this book there is a girl and she is going to Kindergarten, just like I will be next year. I liked seeing the things that she did there. My favorite part was when they went on the monkey bars and pretended that they were in the jungle. There were pretend snakes and alligators trying to get them! That would be fun to play. I hope we do that when I am in Kindergarten! My favorite picture was the one of the teacher when the girl thought that the teacher was going to be scary!"
Parent's comments:
We enjoyed the creative, diary format of the book. The illustrations were also quite entertaining. I think that "Kindergarten Diary" could help to alleviate some of a child's fears about Kindergarten and recommend it to any child who is on the verge of making the Preschool to Kindergarten transition. |
