The book every new kindergartner needs to get them excited for school, brought to vibrant life by Pete Oswald, the New York Times bestselling artist of The Good Egg.
Join kindergarten teacher Mr. Bee as he gets ready for the new school year. Watch as he transforms a cluttered classroom into an inviting, orderly space where everything has its place--art supplies, books, things for pretend, a chair for every child, a cubby marked with their name. Everything goes where it will be easy for the children to reach, and easy to put away when they are done.
This satisfying journey shows children with what to expect when they start school, building excitement in the most comforting way--until, at last, here come the new students, ready to explore a room prepared just for them.
Kindergarten Gets Ready organizes the messy unknown into an orderly, irresistible place for children getting ready for kindergarten.
