Book Reviews
"…[I]t truly is a great resource for carrying you and your child through the first nervous few months of school! Not only can it reinforce all the critical foundational literacy skills of that first year, it helps your child learn confidence, independence, and most importantly, self-regulation in new and strange environments. These exercises are do-able for all those moms and dads who want to be a part of their child's exciting new stage of development but don't know where and how to start!” -- Jennifer Bowser, M.Ed.; Mother
“[I] love the book! It is a great resource to help early learners and parents prepare for and navigate through the transition process with ease.” -- Stephanie Smith, M.Ed., NBCT -- Pre-K Teacher and Parent Educator, Montgomery County, MD Public Schools; Mother
“This [book] gives each child a realistic idea of what to expect and it also gives parents a platform on how to discuss starting school.” -- Monica Evans, M.Ed., Former Teacher, Washington, DC Public Schools
