Editorial Review:

Amazon.com Review:
Blue loves going to school. Each day she fills her backpack with lunch, a smock for painting, and her favorite book for reading time. When she arrives at school, all her friends are there: Green Puppy, Orange Kitten, Magenta, and Purple Kangaroo, as well as their teacher, Mrs. Marigold. But school isn't all fun and games. Sometimes there are challenges, such as when Blue knocks over her milk at lunchtime, or when Green Puppy sits in Blue's special place on the reading rug. "Should Blue make Green Puppy move out of her favorite spot? Or should Blue sit somewhere else today?" Readers are treated to the preschool pooch's thought processes as she envisions each option, and are asked to help Blue come up with the best answer to the problem.

Blue is a favorite among toddlers and preschoolers from her Nick Jr. TV show, Blue's Clues and many lively storybooks (Magenta's Visit, What to Do, Blue?, Welcome to Blue's Clues, etc.). In this interactive story, young children can help their beloved blue pup face some very familiar school-day concerns—-and find terrific solutions. (Ages 3 to 6) --Emilie Coulter

Product Description:
Blue loves going to school! She loves painting time, reading time, and lunchtime. But sometimes Blue has to face some tough situations at school. Preschoolers get to help their favorite puppy figure out solutions to some of her problems in this interactive story.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A great gift idea
I got a number of these books for my 4-year old nephew for his birthday, and he has absolutely loved reading them.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A Day at Blue's School
Blue Goes to School" lets us take a look a look at the things Blue does during her school day with her friends Magenta, Green Puppy, Orange Kitten and Purple Kangaroo. It's not her first time, there, the characters are obviously all settled in and know each other. The teacher is Mrs. Marigold, who directs the classes to their various activities, but otherwise lets the class be reasonably free-form.

Throughout the school day, Blue has to deal with a number of situations. We help her to ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Good introduction to entering school
This book would be appropriate for children entering preschool or kindergarten. It introduces some of the basic elements of a day at school. It's a nice reading companion to the Blues Clues DVD/video "Blue Takes You to School"



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Cute and trite
This is a cute story and the illustrations are great. As usual, the photographic "cut-outs" of Joe or Steve (sorry, I don't remember who's in this one) always look a little out of place, like those live action scenes of Mary Poppins. But kids won't notice. For us, Blues is a far second to Buzz, but he can't read Buzz stories ALL the time and this one teaches some valuable concepts.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Blue Goes to School
Blue loves going to school, but sometimes she has to face some tough situations. In Blue Goes to School, the book follows Blue as she enters Miss Marigold's class, tries to find her cubbyhole, and performs a variety of tasks throughout the day.

This book teachers thinking skills for pre-schoolers as well as manners. For example, Blue is painting a picture of her house and she needs purple for the door. However, Purple Kangaroo has used all the purple paint. Blue then thinks up a strategy ... Read More
