  • Wonderful, Heartfelt Story!
Format: Paperback
Having been a Montessori, private and public school teacher of young children from 2-9 for 50 years, I was only wishing that I was still in the classroom to share this gem with my children! The messages are inspiring and heart felt on a number of crucial issues that young children face in school, and they are written in poetic format, which I totally love! The illustrations are delightful, with every page bringing to life each mini-poem! Just charming! A must for every teacher of young children and a fabulous gift for any child from 4-9! Thank you Laura and Elena!! What a treasure you have given us all!! ... show more

If you are looking for a book that helps builds a positive and loving classroom environment that celebrates each child’s unique culture and gifts then you have found the perfect book. It is so well written and the illustrations are colorful and fun. My daughter just started pre-K and is still feeling nervous about going to her new school. She loved this book and it helped her to feel more comfortable and excited about school and all the things she has to offer her new peers and teachers. This would make a wonderful back to school gift for any teacher or parent of younger students! ... show more
