2 Fun Books: Planet Kindergarten and Planet Kindergarten: 100 Days in Orbit

Do you have children who love to read? Are you looking for fun books with great stories
and  illustrations? I've got two recommendations for you- and both are by Sue Ganz-Schmitt.
  Recently, I had the good fortune to online meet a wonderfully talented children's book author named Sue Ganz-Schmitt through my own books and website. After learning she is an author, we decided to exchange a couple of books. She sent me "Planet Kindergarten" and "Planet Kindergarten: 100 Days in Orbit." (These were perfect for me, since I'm a scientist).
   I absolutely LOVE them. They focus on a young boy who experiences Kindergarten for the first time, and subsequently on his 100th day (book 2), and in his mind, he sees it like he's an astronaut and it's a planet. What a unique and fun way to look at kindergarten! The stories introduce classmates who are seen as fellow space travelers.  I love the artwork too.    I can't say enough good things about books. Children will love reading them over and over, and adults will, too. There's so many details to absorb in the artwork, you'll find something every read as you relive the adventure.
    These are excellent books!   5 of 5 stars. - Rob
