Review

This story is basically "The Twelve Days of Kindergarten," making the reader want to sing it out. A very cute little girl goes through the days painting, laughing, sliding, singing, sorting shapes, eating lunch, and doing other things that typically happen during a kindergarten day. Characters are colorful and multicultural. There is lots of activity and lots to look at in the illustrations. This is a serviceable addition to your collection of kindergarten stories.

Overall Book Score: good
