Book Description
Teachers are some of the most beloved people in the world. That's only one of the reasons why it's so easy to make fun of them. The witty, amusing, and heartwarming tidbits collected here will charm educators and their fans alike. For instance, when asked to give definitions of clouds, a classroom of elementary students provided such definitions as "Rain is saved up in cloud banks," "Clouds are high-flying fogs," and "I'm not sure how clouds get formed, but the clouds know how to do it, and that is the important thing."This book is a natural gift for our children's favorite teachers.
