I liked this book, The Berenstain Bears Ready, Get Set, Go! I liked this book because it gave a message to the readers that everyone is good at something and to never give up. I also liked how colorful and detailed the illustrations were. I also liked the language in this book because it teaches children verbs and adverbs. I liked how it repeated fast, faster, fastest or good, better, best for example.

I liked this book for several reasons. First, I love how colorful and detailed the illustrations were, I can tell pre-K or kindergarten students would enjoy looking at the pictures! I also like how the language in this book was very patterned. At one point the author states, "Papa runs fast, brother runs faster, but sister runs the fastest!" This teaches children the different forms of adverbs. The overall message of this story is that everyone is good at something, and you should not give up even if you cannot find something you succeed in right away. (

This another book great for teaching vocabulary. It also helps children know how to use the words good, better, and best.
