Teachers Make a Difference
BECAUSE YOU ARE MY TEACHERS by Sherry North with illustrations by Marcellus Hall. Abrams, 2012.
If teachers had access to all manner of transportation, imagine the places they could take their students! This book treks to all seven continents as a teacher and a small group of students explore the world around them. While this travel is not realistic, with a classroom as a "vessel" and a dedicated teacher, kids can still explore the world in which they live. This would make an excellent gift for teachers at the holidays (hint, hint). <514>
