Just a lovely book: Pearl Goes to Preschool by Julie Fortenberry

This book has the most delightful illustrations!  Pearl and her mom are so lovingly portrayed by the illustrator as they dance and do other activities together.  I would purchase this book for the visuals alone.

The story is sweet as well though.  Pearl enjoys being at her mom’s ballet school.  Her mother offers her the opportunity to go to preschool but Pearl isn’t sure.  The beauty of the story is that the mother does not force her child and so Pearl makes her own decision.

This is a lovely book for introducing children to the activities of preschool.  It also shows a caring parent/child relationship.

Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this title in exchange for an honest review.
