The Day My Mom Came to Kindergarten

What a fun introduction to rules and routines in a kindergarten classroom!  A little girl loves school and one day invites her mom to stay.  She is shocked when her mom enthusiastically joins in – blurting answers, being messy, not following expectations…  She constantly reminds her mom how to behave and be appropriate so all children can learn and share.  Mom admits that kindergarten is hard work and that she should probably stick to doing big-people jobs.  Her daughter gave her a hug and told her she was really good at being a mom – then gently reminded her to get in line so the class could be dismissed.  Mike Lowery’s expressive cartoon-style illustrations are a perfect match for the many classroom activities in kindergarten.
