 I use a series of worksheets every year with my kindergartners...There
are about 10 in the series, each on is about an aspect of book care, and
in June I compile them all into a booklet and send it home.

It is Cherry Creations (or Cherry Carol?), a series about Bears... 1 is
something about Madame LiBEARian Bear, "and give all our books your very
best care".
