Critic Reviews
“"This story focuses on the back-to-school rules of Percy Isaac Gifford. Percy advises the reader of what NOT to do when starting a new school year. Rules include not showing up late, not contradicting your teacher, not being impolite, and ends with the most important rule--not forgetting to have lots of fun. The story's rhyme makes it fast-paced, and the colorful illustrations are fun to look at. Younger students will enjoy the humor, and teachers can use the story as a review of classroom rules." --Library Media Connection”
