I found this book to be very helpful. The illustrations are not the best, but the rest of the book makes up for this shortcoming. I have bought many of Elizabeth Crosby Stull's books and each one has provided wonderful ideas. My fellow kindergarten teachers have borrowed this book again and again.

I am a Kindergarten teacher in an American curriculum school in the Middle East, so resources are scarce to find.Every time I open the book I just can't seem to get past the awful pictures. The pictures are both amateur and quite frightening considering the age for which they are intended. The content appears to be general which is fine for a kindergarten teacher. Just check out the illustrations BEFORE you buy this book. I am disappointed I spent so much money on a book I will not use.

Very teacher friendly, especially with the spiral binding. Many ideas to reproduce. Gives good overview of early learners. The book really gave me good ideas on how to set up my classroom.

I teach first grade in a public elementary school. I found the book's content to be very valuable for those students that need extra help in specific areas such as fine motor skills. The book provides lots of ideas upon which I can easily build or develop. Other reviewers have complained about the illustrations. However, my main focus is on the academic content/ developmentally appropriate activities and I found those areas to be excellent.

When I received this huge book I was looking forward to it but I found it was amateurish in it's drawings,I actually never read much of it but my time is at a premium and it didn't impress me.
