This idyllic view of school is a good way to prepare nervous new preschoolers and kindergartners. The simple, rhymed text and big, clear color pictures outlined in thick black line show a classroom with seven kids and the teacher they love having fun on a typical day: reading together, trading lunches, listening to stories, playing games, caring for pets. The cast is diverse, and there are no old-fashioned gender roles: boys and girls play with dolls, kick a ball, and pick flowers--sometimes alone, sometimes together. The endpapers present an assortment of facts--1+1= 2; a rabbit's teeth never stop growing, etc.), all of which are part of the story about the excitement of school. show more Category: Books for the Young--Fiction. 2004, HarperCollins, $12.99, $14.89.

This is a good book to read on the first day of school and it talks about the chidren and what they love most about school. They all love the class pet and the teacher!
This book is great with big bright colorful pictures, teaching kids what they'll learn in school.
In this story, children go through the day at school telling what they love about school. They like just about everything, especially the class pet, Harvey Rabbit. What do they love most of all? Well, the teacher of course. This is a good book to read on a first day, or any time students are learnng about school and teachers.
