Look Out Kindergarten, Here I Come

By Nancy Carlson and Puffin Books

Book Overview

The first day of kindergarten is finally here, and Henry can't wait to paint pictures, sing songs, and practice counting. When he gets to school, though, he's not so sure he's ready for kindergarten. But before long Henry discovers that the only thing he's not ready for is how much fun he's going to have at school! This gently humorous, encouraging story will give children about to enter kindergarten an extra boost of confidence.

"Perfect for parents to share with their children, and the endearing Henry will offer reassurance to even the most hesitant prekindergartners."

Customer Reviews

Resonates well with preschoolers

Bought this for my 5 yr old about to start Kindergarten in a new "big" school, and for my 3 yr old who will be going to preschool for the first time. The book resonated well with both of them, especially the younger one.

LOOD OUT KINDERGARTEN, HERE I COME

I BROUGHT THIS BOOK FOR MY GRANDDAUGHTER, AND SHE LOVED IT. IT REALLY PREPARES THE CHILD FOR SCHOOL AND WHAT SHE SHOULD EXPECT THE FIRST DAY .

Great for kids entering Kindergarten

My daughter is very excited about going to kindergarten this fall but she is also nervous about a few things. So I purchased this book and we read it every night along with a few others. It is a wonderful book because it talks about all the things they will do there and how it's ok to be nervous. It talks about making new friends, having a new teacher and kindergarten round up. This has helped us get ready for the transition from preschool to kindergarten. I highly recommend it!

Beginning Kindergarten

I am a Kindergarten Teacher and my students loved reading this book. It is a great way to introduce the school year. Parents this is also a great book to read to your little one as they begin school-it discuss first day of school jitters and excitement. Nancy Carlson does a wonderful job!
