Lola Knows a Lot
by Jenna McCarthy (Author) and Sara Palacios (Illustrator)

Booktalk: Lola knows a lot. She can cartwheel, she can tie her shoes…she can make her sister crazy. The only thing Lola DOESN’T know…is if she’s really ready to go to school.

Snippet: Yup, I am totally ready for school.

At least I thought I was. Until my big sister, Charlotte, had to ask:

“Can you write your name in cursive?
Count to one hundred by fives?
Name all the planets?
Find Mexico on a map?”

She says everyone at school is going to know more than I do. What if she is right?

On the First Day of Kindergarten
by Tish Rabe (Author) and Laura Hughes (Illustrator)

Booktalk: On the first day of kindergarten, there’s so much to do! This engaging new adaptation of “The Twelve Days of Christmas” counts twelve exciting firsts in kindergarten.

Snippet:
On the third day of kindergarten
I thought it was so cool
counting up to ten,
making lots of friends,
and riding the bus to my school!
