From School Library Journal

Kindergarten-Grade 2–An enthusiastic boy explains that his teacher "...is so good,/she can teach...anyone!" He proceeds to make his way through a rhyming, alphabetical list of occupations, beginning with "She could teach an Astronaut/how to float in space./She could teach a Ballet dancer/how to land with grace." Each page is devoted to a letter and illustrated with a bright, cheerful picture of the youngster and his classmates acting out the designated job. The boy imagines her instructing an assortment of potential students including a dentist, a governor, a janitor, an opera singer, and even a zillionaire. The story ends on a heartwarming note, when he states that he is happy "...because this year...she is teaching ME!" Although the message is sure to be appreciated by educators, and the illustrations charmingly portray the special relationship between the teacher and her students, the text is sometimes awkward and a few of the rhymes seem a bit forced. Kay Winters's My Teacher for President (Dutton, 2004) is a more engaging tale about a child's admiration for his mentor.–Linda L. Walkins, Mount Saint Joseph Academy, Brighton, MA
