Hood, Susan Mission: Back to School, PICTURE
BOOK. Random House. 2016. $16.99. Content: G.
What if the first day of school
were really a Top-Secret Mission? In Mission: Back to School, readers
embark on a new mission to take away the first day jitters. If they're up for
the task, they receive classified information. They experience the mission from
the first step to Suit Up, all the way to building diplomatic relations and
gathering for debriefing.There's many more steps along the way, but ultimately,
we find out if the mission at school was a success.
This book is a continuation
of Mission: New Baby. While this was a creative approach to sharing what
the first day of school would entail, it seems the content is a bit difficult
for the desired age group of readers to understand. All of the aspects of a top
secret mission provide some more challenging vocabulary.
EL (K-3) - ADVISABLE.
