On the First Day of Kindergarten

(4) PS Illustrated by Laura Hughes. This "Twelve Days of Christmas" takeoff details a kindergartner's first days in her diversely populated class. The cumulative verses (sans cardinal numbers: "On the first day of kindergarten / I thought it was so cool / riding the bus to my school!") don't scan exactly like the original's, but this gleefully illustrated intro to school-day activities should make a rollicking read-aloud.
