I love, love, love the cover and the illustrations through out the book.  The colors are bright and are very attractive to all little ones.  If five assorted picture books are on a table, the kids will reach for this wonderful little book first for no other reason than the compelling animal illustrations and the vibrant colors on the cover.There is nothing better than a mom for calming her little one's apprehension about heading off to school for the first time.  Once Upon a Time Mommy Went to School wisely uses this known fact to turn out a delightful story that is sure to help sooth those first school day heebie-jeebies for your little one.The author seems to have thought of every situation a youngster might encounter on his first day of school. Questions like, what to do if your child has an accident, are even addressed in the story line of a fox family sending a pup off to school for the first time. And if you don't fancy yourself a good read-aloud reader, there is a handy Video Read Along to help you out.I highly recommend the book to all parents with children approaching school age.  Even if your kids aren't a little scared of the idea of starting school, they will certainly enjoy reading this special book.
