Here are some fantastic books to read and discuss with your child in the weeks before school begins. We also read these books at school but these particular titles are worth revisiting over and over again.

The Barkers (Tomie de Paola)

Miss Bindergarten Gets Ready Kindergarten (Joseph Slate)

Franklin Goes to School (Paulette Bourgeois and Brenda Clark)

My Kindergarten (Rosemary Wells)

Emily’s 100 Days of School (Rosemary Wells)
