Primer Grado, ¡Allá Voy! - (Here I Come!) by D J Steinberg (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Primer grado, ¡el gran momento! Después de todo, es un grado de verdad, verdad. En versos que son tan graciosos como sentidos, D. J. Steinberg celebra los acontecimientos pequeños y grandes con los que todos los pequeños estudiantes se identificarán: los dientes de leche que no terminan de caerse, la elección del libro perfecto en la biblioteca, la celebración del Día de las Piyamas y los debates sobre los misterios de la ortografía. Esta cautivadora antología, que cubre desde el primero hasta el último día de clases, es una lectura esencial para todos los chicos que se preparan para ingresar a primer grado.

We're moving on up to first grade in this fun Spanish addition to D.J Steinberg's bestselling Here I Come! Series.

First grade -- it's the big time! After all, it's a real honest to goodness grade. In verses that are both funny and full of heart, D.J. Steinberg celebrates big and small moments, ones that all young "scholars" will relate to -- baby teeth that won't fall out, choosing the perfect library book, celebrating Pajama Day, and wrangling with the mysteries of spelling. From the first day of school to the last, this engaging anthology is essential reading for all soon-to-be first graders, and it makes the perfect back-to-school gift!
