Teachers are busy people. They do so many things during the school day. Of course they teach their children their one, two, threes, and their A, B, C’s, but they also help children to learn how to “work together,” and the teacher in this book also encourages her children to use their creativity using crayons, paints, and glue. She reads her children wonderful stories, she watches over them in the playground, and she makes all her children look forward to the next school day.

This picture book celebrates teachers and all the wonderful things that they do for their students. With an engaging rhyming text and expressive illustrations, this book is a warm tribute to teachers.
