- Book Synopsis
- Fall in love at first blunder with a wisely foolish kindergarten teacher who makes the first day of school an experience to remember. Kayla isn't too sure about the first day of kindergarten. What if she misses her mom? What if she can't find the bathroom? But when Kayla meets Mrs. Muddle, it quickly becomes clear that Kayla's problems are nothing compared to her teacher's. Mrs. Muddle mixes up the kids' name tags, takes them to the library instead of the gym, and can't find the bathroom. She doesn't even know how to use a slide properly! Clearly somebody needs to take charge. Soon Kayla is much too busy teaching her teacher to think about her own worries. Hearkening back to classics like The Amelia Bedelia collection and Douglas Wood's What Teachers Can't Do, Colleen Nelson will make parents, children, and especially teachers laugh out loud over Mrs. Muddle's antics and the exasperated Kayla's leadership. As the students find their way around the school, Alice Carter's giggle-inducing art welcomes readers into a kindergarten class that makes the first day of school seem very appealing indeed.
- About The Author
