I think that this book would be a cute story to read to your preschool class。 Starting school can be nerve-wracking and a lot of students in your class will be nervous for a lot of different reasons。 This can be a great way to show the students that you know they are nerves but they are going to have fun at school。 I think it would help give a lot of student peace of mind after reading this book on the first day。

Perfect read

Great book to read to your kids if they are nervous about school。 Natasha Wing is very creative。

Cute idea， but the meter gets butchered in places。 The book also doesn't really engage with why the boy might feel nervous about starting preschool。 Cute idea， but the meter gets butchered in places。 The book also doesn't really engage with why the boy might feel nervous about starting preschool。 。。。more

The Night Before Preschool is a children's picture book written by Natasha Wing and illustrated by Amy Wummer。 It is a book about a little boy named Billy going through his first day of pre-school。 As today is the day before the first day of school， I thought reading this book would be apropos to my nieces who are getting ready for their first day of school。Wing's text is simplistic and lyrical。 It is written in the style of "The Night Before Christmas"。 The poem was written especially well and The Night Before Preschool is a children's picture book written by Natasha Wing and illustrated by Amy Wummer。 It is a book about a little boy named Billy going through his first day of pre-school。 As today is the day before the first day of school， I thought reading this book would be apropos to my nieces who are getting ready for their first day of school。Wing's text is simplistic and lyrical。 It is written in the style of "The Night Before Christmas"。 The poem was written especially well and follows the rhythm and style of the original poem extremely well。 Wummer's illustrations are wonderfully depicted， albeit a tad cartoonish， but represented the text and tone rather well。The premise of the book is rather straightforward。 It is the day before the first day of preschool。 Billy couldn't sleep， because he was too worried and the reader follows his first day of preschool， which didn't go as well， because he didn’t get a good night sleep and his worries upset his stomach。 However， after a productive nap time， Billy embraced the rest of the day and declared that he loves preschool。All in all， The Night Before Preschool is a wonderful children's book done in the style of "The Night Before Christmas"。 It is a story about a little boy facing his first day of preschool despite his worries。 。。。more

This book plays off of the popular "The Night Before Christmas" story and at first I was groaning when I started reading it， but I ended up liking it。 The story is really cute and the illustrations are super adorable and I liked the way the author changed the song to fit a child's first time in preschool and how his experience was at the school。 I loved how the teacher was male too because you don't get many male teachers， let alone in preschool， so that was awesome to see。 The only thing I didn This book plays off of the popular "The Night Before Christmas" story and at first I was groaning when I started reading it， but I ended up liking it。 The story is really cute and the illustrations are super adorable and I liked the way the author changed the song to fit a child's first time in preschool and how his experience was at the school。 I loved how the teacher was male too because you don't get many male teachers， let alone in preschool， so that was awesome to see。 The only thing I didn't like was when Billy's mom came back to pick up Billy from school with his teddy bear and asks him， "Did you miss us？"， it just goes to the next page where Justin， the teacher， tells Billy he will see him tomorrow。 This is a minor detail， but I would have loved to see Billy respond， either in the text or via the illustration because it seemed to just cut real fast to them leaving the school。 That's the only thing that didn't seem to flow that well。 Otherwise， great book to read to children who are about to start preschool and might seem nervous about it。 。。。more

Great book to have when you have a child going off to Preschool。 This little book is a big help to a worried mind， it shows a child just what preschool might be like for them。

This book was very important to me as a child。 I remember my parents reading this to me weeks leading up to my first day of preschool because I was so nervous。 Not only did it reassure me that school was fun， but that everything was going to be ok and that I would get through it。 It starts out with a little boy who is very nervous for his first day of preschool。 He says that his tummy hurts and he does not know why。 He goes to preschool and has so much fun with all of his fellow classmates and p This book was very important to me as a child。 I remember my parents reading this to me weeks leading up to my first day of preschool because I was so nervous。 Not only did it reassure me that school was fun， but that everything was going to be ok and that I would get through it。 It starts out with a little boy who is very nervous for his first day of preschool。 He says that his tummy hurts and he does not know why。 He goes to preschool and has so much fun with all of his fellow classmates and plays with all of the new， fun toys。 At nap time， he cannot fall asleep because he does not have his favorite stuffed animal， so his friend lends him hers and he is able to fall asleep。 His tummy no longer hurts and he is able to sleep。 When his parents come to pick him up from his first day he is sad to leave and says that he cannot wait to come back tomorrow！ This book is very relevant for kids who are beginning their first few days at preschool and should be read to them before to reassure them that it is fun and that they will be ok！ A lot of kids get nervous before their first day of school but this book will help them get over any fears they may have。 The major themes in this are to learn to be excited for school and to get over any fears that you may have because it is actually fun and everything will be ok。 。。。more

A very cute story in the poetic style of The Night Before Christmas。I particularly enjoyed this part。"When what to his watering eyes should appear，but a soft， fuzzy rabbit with a bow on its ear。'It's okay，' a little girl said。 Here， take my bunny。'And suddenly Billy's tummystopped feeling so funny。'Thanks，' whispered Billy，snuggling up for a nap。 And just like that -- he was asleep in a snap！"I worked in a preschool summers to pay for Katherine's daycare for the rest of the school year。 This bro A very cute story in the poetic style of The Night Before Christmas。I particularly enjoyed this part。"When what to his watering eyes should appear，but a soft， fuzzy rabbit with a bow on its ear。'It's okay，' a little girl said。 Here， take my bunny。'And suddenly Billy's tummystopped feeling so funny。'Thanks，' whispered Billy，snuggling up for a nap。 And just like that -- he was asleep in a snap！"I worked in a preschool summers to pay for Katherine's daycare for the rest of the school year。 This brought back many happy memories for me！ 。。。more

This book would be a great first day of school read aloud for preschool。 It is about a boy who is afraid to go to school because he doesn't know if he will make friends。 That can be very relatable to children on the first day of school。 This book would be a great first day of school read aloud for preschool。 It is about a boy who is afraid to go to school because he doesn't know if he will make friends。 That can be very relatable to children on the first day of school。 。。。more

My kiddo is not actually going to preschool or nursery school yet， but I picked this one up to read for the "book about doing something new" category of the picture book challenge I'm working on this year。 I've also read The Night Before Thanksgiving and very much enjoy this series of picture books for various occasions that riff on the classic The Night Before Christmas poem/story。 My kiddo is not actually going to preschool or nursery school yet， but I picked this one up to read for the "book about doing something new" category of the picture book challenge I'm working on this year。 I've also read The Night Before Thanksgiving and very much enjoy this series of picture books for various occasions that riff on the classic The Night Before Christmas poem/story。 。。。more

I really like this book as a parent because it helps calms the fears of my children when they are heading to their first year of preschool。 My kids loved the story and it calms some of the fears and make them excited。 The illustrations in this book are AMAZING SAUCE。 They are so colorful and really nice to draw a child's attention to the details of a classroom in the preschool setting。Check out more of my reviews at: https://lifeofstay-at-homemom。blogspo。。。 I really like this book as a parent because it helps calms the fears of my children when they are heading to their first year of preschool。 My kids loved the story and it calms some of the fears and make them excited。 The illustrations in this book are AMAZING SAUCE。 They are so colorful and really nice to draw a child's attention to the details of a classroom in the preschool setting。Check out more of my reviews at: https://lifeofstay-at-homemom。blogspo。。。 。。。more

This book is great for children preparing to go to preschool。 It is about a little boy who is anxious about preschool。 He ends up going and at the end of the day he wants to go back！

This delightful rhyming picture book is reminiscent of the night before Christmas。 It shows the kids and parents getting ready for preschool。 Most of the kids are ready and happy to go except one little boy how is nervous and doesn't want to join in。 A nap time disaster is avoided when one of the little girls in the class shares with him and makes him feel better。 They become friends before the end of the book。 This delightful rhyming picture book is reminiscent of the night before Christmas。 It shows the kids and parents getting ready for preschool。 Most of the kids are ready and happy to go except one little boy how is nervous and doesn't want to join in。 A nap time disaster is avoided when one of the little girls in the class shares with him and makes him feel better。 They become friends before the end of the book。 。。。more

In the format of the Night Before Christmas this book is perfect for children getting ready for their first day of preschool！ Billly feels scared the night before and at school but as the day goes on he finds out just how fun school is。 With this book you could talk about some of the things children are afraid of the night before school。

This is a clever book for preschool children because it is written in the style of "'Twas the Night Before Christmas" but it focuses on Preschool。 Not only that， but it revolves around a little boy who is nervous about his first day and takes a while to warm up to the idea of preschool。 A great teaching tool for kids who are going to preschool for the first time。 This is a clever book for preschool children because it is written in the style of "'Twas the Night Before Christmas" but it focuses on Preschool。 Not only that， but it revolves around a little boy who is nervous about his first day and takes a while to warm up to the idea of preschool。 A great teaching tool for kids who are going to preschool for the first time。 。。。more
