Customer Reviews

D.W. is great

Very good book for children starting preschool. Gives them a hint of what to expect. My daughter loves any book by Marc Brown, but this is her new favorite.

one of the best preschool books

funny, light hearted, useful. I bought about 5 different ones to help prepare my 2 year old for preschool, and this was one of the best. This is one of the few times DW is a great role model; she takes preschool all in stride and has a good time.

Great Book - My Daughter LOVES It. We wore it out!

This book is great! My daughter is nearly 3 years old and we purchased this book about 9 months ago when she attended Mother's Day Out. This book talks about preschool is a very fun way. DW narrarates her day from when her mom drops her off until her mom picks her up. She even talks about some of the "upsetting" things that can happen. However, DW LOVES Preschool, so it doesn't upset her. DW talks about everything from going potty, to circle time, to sharing, to kids that fib a bit about what they can do. My daughter can not get enough of this book. She has memorized it and acts out parts of the book during playtime. We actually wore it out and need to find a new one!

Love It!!!

We just received this in the mail yesterday. My 3 year old daughter starts preschool on Monday. This book is great. We've already read it at least 5 times. The illustrations are great and the story is very easy to follow. If your child is going to school for the first time, this is the book to get.

LOVE IT!

My three year old son is getting ready for preschool and I was so excited to find this book. He loves the illustrations and asks a lot of questions about what is going on in the pictures. We bought this book on Saturday and within 2 days we have to have read it at leat 50 times-seriously! I want to see if he responds like this to more of Marc Brown's books!
