Horn Book Review

Two more enjoyable visits with Mrs. Connor's first-grade class find the students preparing for St. Patrick's Day by learning the differences between shamrocks and four-leaf clovers (Irish) and enjoying Parents Week, where Ayanna worries about her artist dad's nontraditional job until he wows her classmates (School). As always, the stories are age-appropriate and warmly illustrated. [Review covers these Ready-to-Read: Robin Hill School titles: Dad Goes to School and The Luck of the Irish.] (c) Copyright 2010.
