Summary: 5 Stars
My three year old loves Dora and this book was great to get her used to starting daycare/preschool. We read it together and then she would read it to me. Good buy.Book Review: Dora Goes to School
Summary: 5 Stars
This book really helped with the "first time in school" jitters that my little Grandaughter felt. She loves Dora and if Dora could face it and get through it then she could too. I highly recommend this book for the great lesson it teaches. Plus, the kids love to read it or have it read to them too!!!Book Review: Positive book for preschoolers
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is not only positive in that it has more than one nationality portrayed, but it also displays positive helping skills. My child loves hearing about school.Book Review: Good For Recognizing The Alphabet And Counting To Ten
Summary: 4 Stars
"Hola! I'm Dora and this is my best friend, Boots. It's our first day of school today! And look, there's our teacher, Maestra Beatriz! She's on her way to school too." --from the story
Maestra Beatriz is riding her bike to school and gets a flat tire. Dora and Boots help Maestra Beatriz make her way to school with the help of their trusty friend, Map. The quickest way to school is through Letter Town and over Number Mountain. El autobus helps take them through Letter Town, which feature streets paved with letters. As children find the route with the alphabet, they sing the ABC song.
Then, Azul the train arrives to help take them over Number Mountain. While the book doesn't teach the child to count from 1-10 in Spanish, it *does* show the numbers forwards and backwards so they can count from 1-10 up the mountain...and 10-1 as the go down the other side.
With the schoolhouse in the distance, Dora's cousin Diego shows up on the back of a Condor. Encouraging the reader to say "Squawk, squawk!" to call the Condors, Dora, Boots, Maestra Beatriz and Diego rides on the back of the birds all the way to the school house. Before they enter the door, there are 8 items from Backpack that are shown...but which ones are Maestra Beatriz' school supplies?
They all make it inside before the third bell...even fending off an attempted theft from Swiper the fox!
My only beef with this book is that "Maestra Beatriz" is quite the mouthful to say over and over and over. I would have thought they'd pick simpler name to say for the story.
