PRESCHOOL
Ashburn, Boni

The Class

(3) PS Illustrated by Kimberly Gee. "Four are eager, up since dawn. / Three just sit and yawn and yawn." Spare, trip-proof rhymes describe the morning routine before the first day of school as experienced by a bevy of what appear to be new kindergartners. Together, Ashburn's rhymes and Gee's tidy thumbnails of twenty-odd individualized kids make the point that it's okay to march to one's own beat.
