Open The Door To Preschool (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798824502480)

This book was born out of Xue's experience as a preschool teacher and mother. She understands that children (as well as caregivers) are often apprehensive about starting preschool. Her hope is that this book will help children and caregivers become more comfortable starting preschool by providing a fun (as well as accurate) depiction of daily life at her preschool. This book will provide you and your child with an introduction to many of the places and activities found in preschools around the world. An accomplished artist, Xue also illustrated the book with scenes taken from her experience and surroundings as a preschool teacher.

With so many activities to explore and friends to meet, Xue's book will both prepare and excite your child for their first day of preschool. Along the way, you will find a number of parent-child interaction prompts as well as names of places and activities in both English and Chinese. As you read this book with your child, you will feel as though you are travelling with them through new adventures to preschool and beyond!
