This friendly book welcomes children to kindergarten.
The engaging illustrations take the children through a typical day at school, making the new experience more familiar.
Children are invited to personalize the book with photographs and/or drawings of themselves, their teachers, and their friends.
For English language learners, space has been provided under the text for their parents to write the translation in their own language, creating a dual language book that recognizes their language and culture.
Coming to Kindergarten is a wonderful souvenir of a child’s first year of school.

New Home:
New Home was created to help newcomers and English Language Learners settle into their new lives in Canada.
Created by teachers, this beautifully illustrated book follows the adventures of two children arriving at the airport, moving into a new house, shopping for food and clothes, meeting new friends at school, and becoming comfortable with their new home.
Teachers can use this book as a read aloud to help new Canadian students feel welcome at school and also to encourage Canadian-born students to understand the experiences of their new friends.
New Home
