Pirates Dont Go To Kindergarten Cover Reveal (Plus A Giveaway)

by Lisa Robinson & Eda Kaban Thank you, Tara, for hosting the cover reveal for PIRATES DON’T GO TO KINDERGARTEN (Two Lions/Amazon), which hits the shelves in August 2019. We’d like to share a few stories about the book. Pirate Emma is about to start kindergarten. But Emma’s not so sure she’s ready for a new captain and crew. Especially since her beloved Cap’n Chu is right down the hall. So Emma decides to sail back to preschool and stir up a mutiny against kindergarten. Is that what she really wants? Or does she just miss her beloved Cap’n Chu? Batten down the hatches, mateys, because the first day of school is going to be stormy! Lisa, what was your inspiration for PIRATES DON’T GO TO KINDERGARTEN? My daughters loved their preschool teachers and had a hard time saying goodbye to them. When I want to process something with my kids, I look for a book to use for discussion. Although there were many books about the first day of school, I couldn’t find any about preschool children who were sad to leave their preschool teachers behind. So I decided to write one. What did you think when you saw how Eda Kaban brought your story to life?   I was so impressed with her vision for the book. I love how she made Emma such an expressive, lively, assertive character.
