"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.

"This cheerful story is just right for kindergarten-bound children and their younger siblings....both the rhyming verse and the pictures are filled with humor and energy."--School Library Journal

"Simple, straightforward, and relentlessly upbeat, this energetic title is a welcome complement to the many entrées to kindergarten that focus on kids' anxieties."--Booklist
