This funny, touching picture book celebrates the difference a good teacher can make. Written as a thank-you note to a special teacher from the student who never forgot her, this moving story makes a great classroom read-aloud, and a perfect back-to-school gift for students and teachers!

Dear Teacher, Whenever I had something to tell
you, I tugged on your shirt and whispered in your ear. This time I’m writing
a letter.

So begins this heartfelt picture book about a
girl who prefers running and jumping to listening and learning-and the
teacher who gently inspires her. From stomping through creeks on a field trip
to pretending to choke when called upon to read aloud, this book’s young
heroine would be a challenge to any teacher. But this teacher isn’t just any
teacher. By listening carefully and knowing just the right thing to say, she
quickly learns that the girl’s unruly behavior is due to her struggles with
reading. And at the very end, we learn what this former student is now- a
teacher herself.

From award winning author Deborah Hopkinson and acclaimed illustrator Nancy
Carpenter, this picture book is made to be treasured by both those who teach
and those who learn.
