Before the final bell rings, there's excitement in the air - but it's bittersweet, too. You'll laugh and cry, play and learn, and remember all the special moments with your friends and teachers. On the Last Day of School is a reminder to celebrate where you started and where you're going next. Cheers to a school year you'll never forget.
"Kids who haven't yet experienced the last day of school will appreciate a glimpse at what they might expect, while more seasoned children will enjoy looking back on hugs and field days past. Morley's soft-hued illustrations depict a loving, diverse community. An upbeat tribute to the culmination of a busy school year." --Kirkus
"A fine read-aloud choice when the occasion arises." --Booklist
