Buy Miss Bindergarten Gets Ready for Kindergarten by Slate, Joseph, Wolff, Ashley online on desertcart.ae at best prices. ✓ Fast and free shipping ✓ free returns ✓ cash on delivery available on eligible purchase. Review: As a school librarian, I think a copy of this delightful book should be in the home of every in-coming kindergartner and in every elementary school library, and every kindergarten room should have the entire series. Author Joe Slate and illustrator Ashley Wolff have created a kindergarten classic! The book has several facets - the alphabet, rhyming text, a teacher's tasks, and students' feelings. Miss Bindergarten (a border collie) has 26 students (each a different animal), and their names start with the 26 letters of the alphabet. The action alternates between Miss B's vigorous efforts to get her classroom ready, and the attitudes of the 26 children as they prepare for their new experience. There are examples of every feeling - Danny Hess rushes to dress, Fran Lister kisses her sister, and Ian Lowe says "I won't go!" The story is warm and wonderful, the illustrations are gorgeous, and the book is so rich in amusing details that it will be read and re-read many times. Thank you, Mr. Slate and Ms Wolff! Review: I love this book. An easy, light handed, rhyming introduction to the idea of going to school for the first time. I can serve as a good conversation starter. It also serves as a subtle alphabet book focusing on a cast of animal characters and the preparation of getting to school and the teacher readying the space rather than the letters themselves. Playful, colorful illustrations. Depending on the individual child's level and experience...i.e. if they've been in pre-k or pre-school it might be a bit simple but I find it charming none the less.

Someone recommended this book as a good one to read to children about to enter kindergarten, so I bought it for my daughter. The illustrations are beautiful, and the story is cute! There are many different animals, each starting with a letter of the alphabet. I love that it also shows how much work kindergarten teachers put into preparing for their students. My husband commented that it is an American book because it shows students going to school for the first time in fall, as opposed to spring in Japan, but I wouldn't have noticed that. It is a wonderful book!

I reread this book to my class over the year. They love it! Considering buying a second copy for a student held book. Maybe second hand
