Miss Bindergarten Stays Home from Kindergarten

Summary: The Joys of Kindergarten
Review: It's Sunday and poor Miss Bindergarten has come down with the flu and she won't be able to teach school tomorrow. But, not to worry, Mr Tusky, the very able substitute, is here. And with the help of the children, Adam the alligator, Brenda the beaver, Christopher the cat... and the rest of the alphabetized named class, they don't miss a thing...show and tell, drawing and painting, singing...Unfortunately, with each day, another student falls victim to the flu. That is until Friday, when everybody is back for a full day with Miss Bindergarten. On Saturday and Sunday, everyone gets to stay home, especially a very sick Mr Tusky! Joseph Slate has written a very gentle, rhyming story about the joys of kindergarten, even when the flu hits. Ashley Wolff's, expressive, detailed illustrations, compliment the story perfectly as you watch the class play, learn and even fall sick. Together, they take some of the mystery and fear out of kindergarten life. A wonderful, delightful story all kindergarteners will love and want to read again and again.

Summary: Superb Book for children
Review: Miss Bindergarten is a dog who teaches school to a lot of baby animals. I read this book to my four year old, and he loved it. After we were done reading the book he hugged it and smiled really big. The book is intended for an audience of 4 or 5 year olds (maybe even the first graders). There are 38 unnumbered pages in this book. This book is illustrated by Ashley Wolff, and she does a brillant job. I usually don't like to pitch authors and illustrators, but there was a lot thought and care put into these illustrations so I just have to say something about this illustrator. At this age -- illustrations are everything. We spent about 10 minutes reading this book (5 of those minutes were me trying to get to the next page). Then about 45 minutes looking at the pictures and naming the different little animals. My son wanted to look at and ask questions about each page -- very stimulating for his little mind. I highly recommend this book.

Summary: Sweet memory of Kindergarten for a mother and a daughter
Review: My daughter has recently graduated her loved kindergarten. She was fascinated with two kind teachers in this book. They remind her of her worshipped teacher Ms. Kikuchi so she read this book again and again. For me, my daughter's kindergarten days are sweet memory, too. In those days, even catching cold and staying home is so sweet that we can't forget such a day.
