Featured Author: Cindy Penn Senior Editor, WordWeaving.com (http://www.wordweaving.com) First day at school - Highly recommended
On her first day of school, Jordie excitedly dresses herself, gathers her book bag, and says goodbye to her fish on the way out the door. She sees a big bus filled with children when she and her mother arrive at school. When the time arrives for Jordie to go into the classroom, however, going to school does not seem like such a good idea. Jordie asks her mother if she can home. After her mother reassures her, Jordie begins her first day and finds out how much fun school can be.
Any child's first day at school can be a frightening and intimidating experience. Author Jennifer Leese uses her years of parenting to bring understanding of that first day's fears in JORDIE'S SCHOOL DAY ADVENTURE. Jordie's day includes the usual activities of a first day, giving parents an opportunity to not only discuss their child's fears of a first day at school, but also what to expect. With charming illustrations by Kym Jones, this delightful tale will open communication to prepare young ones for school.
Highly recommended.
Featured Author: Dorothy Thompson, Editor, The Writer's Life (http://www.thewriterslife.net) From the moment I opened Jordie's School Day Adventure, I knew that this was going to be one of Ms. Leese's best. Everyone knows the fear of that first day of school and Ms. Leese captures this very well.
It is Jordie's first day of pre-school. To ease her apprehensions, her mother tucks a tiny picture of herself into Jordie's hand. Throughout the day, if she wants to 'see' her mother, all she has to do is open her hand and there she is. A wonderful idea!
Jordie goes about her day singing along with her teacher, enjoying reading time, and playing outside happily with her new playmates. Ms. Leese captures the joy of learning, while showing children that school is not so bad after all.
An excellent book for children just starting school! Jordie's School Day Adventure will capture the hearts of children all over. I enjoyed the beautiful words of Ms. Leese and would highly recommend it for children from pre-school to beginning readers.
Featured Author: Karen Wiesner, author of the Making Good Choices Series of interactive children's books http://www.karenwiesner.com Jennifer LB Leese's "Jordie's School Day Adventure" is the perfect book to read to young children skittish about heading off for their first day of pre-school. In rhyming verse, Jordie believes school is too big and wants to go home until Mommy gives her something to remind her that she's never far away. Kym Jones' illustrations are adorably appropriate for this touching story.
