"MY SCHOOL STARTS in one week so—I have SEVEN DAYS to go. Mom says be patient, do not worry. But I can't wait! I'm in a hurry!"In this delightful book a little girl counts off the days by naming what she'll do in kindergarten. "I'll be ready, I'll be smart. I will get a running start. I'll say thank you, I'll say please. I will say my ABCs!" And deciding what to wear and what to take are all part of her preparation for that exciting first day. With bouncy read-aloud rhyme, bright, fun illustrations, and hidden objects to find on each page, Kindergarten Countdown gets children off on the right foot.

Anna Jane Hays directed Sesame Street's book publishing program for 29 years until her retirement as vice-president/editor-in-chief at Children's Television Workshop in 1999 when she moved to Santa Fe. She is the author of many books for children including Ready, Set, Preschool!
Linda Davick's vibrant graphic art illustrated 10 Trick-or-Treaters, recommended by School Library Journal as "a not-too-scary treat for the youngest Halloween fans." She lives in San Francisco.
The author of Ready, Set, Preschool! (2005) offers an equally cheery title for the kindergarten bound. In the week before she starts kindergarten, Lucy can barely contain her excitement. Bouncy, rhyming couplets describe how she plans and prepares each day, from imagining what she will bring to show-and-tell to choosing her confidence-boosting outfit ("my superhero sweater / that makes me feel / strong and better"). The computer-generated images, executed in strong geometric shapes and glossy, jelly-bean shades, offer plenty of opportunities for practicing basic concepts. The name of each day appears on each spread, an image of Lucy playing with blocks shows the whole alphabet, and a counting review of the numbers one through seven concludes. Simple, straightforward, and relentlessly upbeat, this energetic title is a welcome complement to the many entrées to kindergarten that focus on kids' anxieties. Engberg, Gillian
