Dexter already knows everything there is to know about kindergarten. His big sister, Jessie, told him all about it. So Dexter is not scared. Not even a little bit. But his stuffed dog, Rufus, is scared. Actually, he’s terrified. But Dexter--er, Rufus--has nothing to fear: As he’ll soon find out, kindergarten rocks!
A must have! Every parent should have this book for their child before starting Kindergarten! My son even took it to his first day of Kindergarten and his teacher read it to all the kids. She added a copy to her classroom library!
Adorable!! Totally well written and adorable, this book has been a great springboard for my daughter to open up about her concerns for starting kindergarten in a few weeks. Love it and recommend it to all parents of children entering kindergarten.
Perfect book for your rising kindergartner I bought Kindergarten Rocks! as a present for my nephew who is starting kindergarten in the fall. He was feeling a little anxiety, especially since he is an only child and has not seen an older sibling start kindergarten. The book is lighthearted and fun and the perfect way to give an only or oldest child some older-sibing advice about the big day. My nephew reads the book every night and he has also taken it to preschool show-and-tell to show all the kids that Kindergarten Rocks! I also got Welcome to Kindergarten, which is a fine book, but would be my second choice. For any anxious parents, I'd recommend The Mommy's and Daddy's Guide to Kindergarten, which my sister now reads every night before bed too :-)
Love it I have a rising kindergartener and he loves this book, as does my 4 yr old.
Cute book My 5 year old son loved this book before starting kindergarten this year and still loves to read it. He really related to the story since he had the same apprehensions and fears about kindergarten as the boy in the book.
