Davis, Katie. Kindergarten Rocks. Harcourt , 2005. ISBN 0152049320. $15.00. Ages 4-8.
Dexter Dugan is about to start kindergarten. Along with the help of his experienced third grade sister, Jess, they show Rufus, Dexter’s stuffed dog, that there is nothing to be “an eensy teensy beensy bit scared” of. Wide-eyed Dexter’s humorous journey of the first day of school finds him quickly tackling many of the first-day of school fears and he decides Kindergarten Rocks. The procession of cartoon illustrations highlights Davis’s clever use of cartoon bubble dialogue along with vibrantly crayoned illustrations. Kindergarten Rocks is sure to be a hit among apprehensive children and anxious parents who are sending their children to school for the first time.
