(3) K-3 Illustrated by Shane Prigmore. The crew from Planet Kindergarten has completed one hundred days of their mission. While the text uses space jargon to describe what's happening, the graphic digital illustrations show kindergartners' typical one-hundredth-day activities. When our hero spills his collection of one hundred things, his squad comes to the rescue ("Operation Cleanup is a go!"). This sequel is an (inter)stellar addition to the one-hundredth-day-of-school shelf.

(2) K-3 Illustrated by Shane Prigmore. Whether starting at the kindergarten around the corner or on another planet, the mission is always a daring one. When this book's protagonist arrives at Planet Kindergarten, he discovers that his classmates from around the galaxy are just as nervous as he is. Light, tongue-in-cheek text and digital illustrations with a 1950s-throwback vibe make for a humorous space-age take on the first-day-of-school story.
