Product Description
Things are always a little rowdy with twenty-six kindergartners, but there are some days when chaos reigns. Watch what happens to Miss Bindergarten's rambunctious class when water overflows, ants are on the loose, and oozy paint smudges. But with help from school staff members, Miss Bindergarten and the class survive, even finding time to plant seeds and witness the wonder of butterflies emerging from their chrysalises. With the jaunty rhymes and sweetly hilarious illustrations that have been the trademark of all of Miss Bindergarten's adventures in kindergarten, this lively book will be familiar and thoroughly entertaining to young children and their patient teachers.

A delightful romp through the A-Z world of Miss B, 2007-07-03
Once again Joseph Slate has captured a sweet story of this wonderful kindergarten class. I highly recommend this book to anyone who has children from ages 2 through 7.

Very rich, very fun, and quietly educational, too: Excellent!, 2006-10-24
I found our first Miss Bindergarten book by chance one day in the library, and soon my daughter, who is a voracious reader, had become obsessed with it. We have now read four Miss B. books, and this one is the favorite. What is it about the books that is so fun? I think it's the bright colors, the occasionally wacky action, the school setting (my daughter has learned so much about how school works through these books; almost everything she's encountered in her first year of nursery school has been previewed in these books). I also think that parents can enjoy these books, too, because each child in the books represents both a letter of the alphabet and a species that begins with that letter. My wife, who teaches elementary school and has taught Kindergarten says the writer and illustrator really know what goes on in school. The details are excellent, the teaching tools up-to-date, and both the behavior of the kids and Miss B's handling of problems are realistic.
There's so much detail that my daughter was noticing things I didn't, including things not in the text that occur in the drawings themselves. This is also good clean fun, lacking in violence, but very physically active the way kids like it to be. You can't beat the combination of fun, healthy/clean, and educational. We even bought the Miss B. doll from an Amazon seller, and my daughter immediately set up her own school for Miss B. We highly recommend this series as a fun way to teach children without turning it into a stressful lesson.

miss bindergarten has a wild day in kindergarten, 2006-08-29
eye popping illustrations that the whole family will enjoy. A delightful story about how to handle a day filled with mishaps and small children. So entertaining and helpful in recognizing that bad things can happen but with patience and experience you can handle them.

Also a great science book!, 2005-10-05
Miss Bindergarten is back and OH!, what a wild day she is having. "Danny tends his droopy beans, Matty checks a chrysalis, and Jessie drops the bug jar." The kindergartners are growing and learning about the life cycles of plants and butterflies in the midst of one of the most hilariously hectic days the school has ever experienced. The whole "school village" from Mrs. Simpson, the secretary to Mr. King, the principal, to Carl Cox, the custodian, lends a hand to get Miss Bindergarten and her class through the day. An accurately portrayed and fun way to introduce and teach kindergarten science standards.
