About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is buzzing with anticipation for a first class trip or a seasonal autumn outing. It serves as a gentle social script for navigating group activities, school bus etiquette, and public spaces, making it a perfect tool to soothe pre-trip jitters or celebrate a milestone day out with friends. The story follows a diverse group of students on a field trip to a pumpkin patch, using a countdown from twenty to one to highlight the various sights and sounds of the farm. Beyond its rhythmic math focus, the book celebrates the joy of shared experiences and the wonder found in nature. It is ideal for preschoolers and early elementary students (ages 3 to 7) who are developing their counting skills and learning to navigate the social dynamics of school life.
What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
The book is entirely secular and safe. It features a diverse cast of children in the illustrations, including a student who uses a wheelchair, though this is presented as a natural part of the classroom environment without being the focus of the text.
Ideal Reader
A 4-year-old child who is preparing for their very first school bus ride or a first-grade student who loves 'I Spy' style visual challenges combined with rhythmic counting.
