Official Review: Lil Mo Goes to Preschool by Lisa Malloon

[Bianka Walter]

This sounds a very interesting book. I like different color scheme for each page with vivid illustrations. Great review.

Thanks, Sarah! It was fun
Thanks for commenting!

The first day of preschool is usually pandemonium: kids wailing, parents stressed out, and teachers ready to tear their hair out. This might be a good book to read to the kids way before the first day. Then, hopefully, "D Day" will be terrific, instead of terrible.

Thanks for the enjoyable review, Bianka!

Oh my goodness, you're so right. Although, I think the parents end up crying more than the kids
Thanks, Miriam - I always appreciate your comments.

I definitely agree with your point about 10.05 being slightly late for school; also, it's amazing that you could noticed that! It'll definitely be a great book for children. Thanks for the review, I enjoyed reading it as always!

I know. I would have loved for school to have started at that time. Actually, I would have loved for it not to have started at all!
Thanks gen, I appreciate your comments

This seems like a fun and educational read for children. I wish I glad to wake up at 10:05 a.m., when I had school.

Thank you for the detailed review, Bianka.

I wish that too! School would have been so much more tolerable!
Thanks so much for stopping by, Kajori

You've got a great eye! It's amazing how you've spotted that minute clock detail. Clocks' hands in stores are normally set to 10:10, which would have been fine; although there are some schools where kids start their half-day classes in the afternoon, 10:05 is not so usual indeed. I think I would've loved a book like this when I was a child. Thank you for your engaging and insightful review.

It sounds like a really useful little book. Good call on the clock problem. Great review.

Thanks Espie!
I read somewhere that they make the clocks 10:10 because they look like they’re smiling. Who knows if that’s true or not but it sounds cool

Oh, this sounds like a gem of a book. Beautifully simple and well executed. You are observant to have caught the the clock anomaly. Good eye. Thanks for another really interesting review!

I love the idea of different color schemes for each page. As children this age are also learning their colors, that's just one more plus! My grandson is already in grade school, but I wish I'd had this book a couple of years ago! Wonderful review of what sounds like a wonderful book!

This sounds adorable! It’s so important for kids to be able to imaginatively walk through big changes like this first. I also like that the book features a black child; it’s important all children get books where they see themselves in the lead. Agree with your assessment of the 10:05 time. I don’t know any preschoolers willing to sleep that late even without going to school.

Absolutely, what was even better was the other children in the class. They were all colours and sizes too
I was one of the VERY rare kids that liked my sleep. My mom could never get me out of bed. So this school would be peeeerfect for me!
