| Publisher Description: Do You Remember Your First Day of Kindergarten? Most children and their mommies-and daddies, too-have vivid memories of the first day of kindergarten. It is a big step, full of big emotions and important questions. Cara is nervous, excited, and a bit scared as she gets ready for her first day in a new school with a new teacher and new classmates. She has so many questions, particularly one very BIG one. Mommy helps Cara find some answers-and her smile-before she goes out the door to this new adventure. "A compelling and compassionate story of the first day of school, written by a teacher and a grandmother who knows how to comfort and encourage the independence and love of learning that we want to instill in our children who are entering kindergarten, nursery school, or even first grade." Sally M. Reis, PhD, Letitia Neag Morgan Chair in Educational Psychology, Board of Trustees Distinguished Professor, University Teaching Fellow University of Connecticut "Starting kindergarten is such an important milestone in the educational journey of every child. Any parent who reads Today Cara Goes to Kindergarten with their kindergarten-ready child will have a great opportunity to engage in conversations that build trust and self-reliance. The fun images help to make the story come to life!" Jeanne Muzi, Principal Slackwood Elementary School, 2008-2009 New Jersey Teacher of the Year |
