An absolute staple for any kindergarten parent, grandparent, or teacher! This is one of the first books I read on the first day of school! This book shows the children all the things that had to be done to get ready for Kindergarten - Miss Bindergarten has to get the classroom ready and students (their first names begin with a letter from the alphabet, as well as their species of animal) have to do numerous things as well. For example: Patricia Packer (the pig) sneaks a cracker - Tommy Tuttle (a tiger) jumps a puddle.
