Publisher Description
Award-winning creator Selina Alko's One Golden Rule at School is a charming story that's two books in one—a counting book and a school primer for little ones.
Young children experience a day of preschool, beginning with morning meeting, story time, and art projects, then on to outside play, puzzles, and snack and nap time, ending with a heartwarming golden rule.
Set against the familiar and dynamic backdrop of a daily school adventure, this vibrant counting book showcases a diverse and inclusive classroom of learners. The text counts from one to ten and back again while the back matter counts higher to twenty.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Alko brings her signature mixed-media collage art into a classroom setting through this counting tale with a timely and timeless seminal message. Each spread displays items for readers to count as an inclusive cast of students listen to "four stories"; build with "six blocks"; dabble in art, planting, and music projects; strike "five" yoga poses; and clean up. A seek-and-find challenge progresses from spotting one object to 10 before reversing direction for a countdown, culminating in "One Golden Rule" ("Do to others as you would have them do to you") and "one great day at school!" Ranging from spare to busy, the pages incorporate muted and bold colors and mesh Alko's stylized drawings and an eclectic roundup of collage tidbits, among them admittance tickets, gift tags, and strands of yarn. Ages 2 6.
