Henry's 100 Days of Kindergarten
Kindergarten-Grade 2 - On his first day of kindergarten, Henry learns that his teacher will add a jelly bean to a special jar every day until they reach 100 days of school. As each month passes, the little mouse and his classmates engage in seasonal activities, celebrate holidays, give a concert, and visit the school library. Finally, February arrives and Henry brings his 100-year-old great-grandma to school for show-and-tell. Done in colored markers and pen and ink, Carlson's characteristic paintings are filled with bright colors and homey details, making Henry's classroom a comfortable place for young readers to visit. Pair this with Anne Rockwell's100 School Days(HarperCollins, 2002) or Rosemary Wells's more detailedEmily's First 100 Days of School(Hyperion, 2000) for a centenary celebration.- Lisa Gangemi Kropp, Middle Country Public Library, Centereach, NYCopyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.
