Customer Reviews

What a treat to have this available for my grandchildren.

I picked up this small paperback as a resource for my son and daughter-in-law. It is just packed with information. What a resource this would have been for us when we were selecting a preschool for our children. I fully intend to make this book available for my children as my grandchildren are to be enrolled in a preschool. Thank you, Doris Herman. You write from your experience and I can tell, from your heart filled with caring as these little ones enter new environments.

All questions about preschool are answered in this book!

Any parent that has sent a child to school for the first time knows the anxiety it creates. Doris Herman has written a book that helps lessen the anxiety. This book takes all the guess work out of choosing a pre-school and what you might encounter once your child has begun. Doris Herman is the Dr. Spock of pre-schoolers and their parents. This book is a must for any parent that has a pre-school child.

Well worth it!

I heartily recommend this book to all parents anxious about pre-school. The author speaks to you as trustworthy friend.

Herman's sensitivity and her hands-on classroom perspective make this guide a valuable resorce for first-time parents.
