Editorial Reviews:
After the first day of first grade, Henry’s not so sure how he feels about it. The teacher is not like his kindergarten teacher, the fifth-graders hog the monkey bars, and there are too many new things to learn! But as Henry tells his mother about the cool classroom science corner, a new friend who also likes soccer, and that he’ll learn to read books, he begins to realize that maybe first grade won’t be so bad after all.

With friendly illustrations and an upbeat text, Nancy Carlson delivers a reassuring story that shows how exciting first grade can be.

Summary: Books can help.
Comment: I read this to my boys just before they started first grade this year, and they liked it. It was a little more involved than the "Miss Bindergarten" books, which makes it appropriate for older (6 and 7 year-olds as opposed to 4 and 5 year-olds) kids. It also helps start them talking about what's on their minds - are they nervous, excited, fearful? what do they expect?

Summary: Read to Kindergartener
Comment: I read this to my grandson, the first grader, and although he enjoyed it, I felt it better suited for a kindergartener going into first grade. It worked great as a discussion tool on how things are done in other schools. For instance, in his class, first graders do not receive a snack outside of lunch; they do not have a class pet; and he does not take the bus to school, but is chauffeured by his cousin--which is my personal preference.

I still rate it 5 stars and suggest buying it before child enters first grade that way it becomes a keepsake because of the anticipation it builds in the youngster.
