This feels like a book that should be read in the Spring (graduation time and all that), but I'm going to mention it now since many children are just starting first grade.
This is the story of a little girl experiencing the last day of kindergarten. She is sad at first to see her friends and teacher for the last time. The children spend their time cleaning the room, meeting for a last circle time, and going to their graduation. By the end of the day our young heroine is all ready to start first grade! Written by Minnesotan Nancy Loewen, and illustrated by Sachiko Yoshikawa, this was a finalist for the Minnesota Book Award in 2011.
