Karla Clark's You Be series continues with You Be Teacher, a humorous and tender story about educators and all they do for their students.
Teacher is simply too tired to be Teacher today! She taught the seasons, then got splattered with paint and smeared with glue. She even bandaged a student’s boo-boo.
All this before noon?! This exhausted teacher playfully tries to convince her students to fill her shoes for the day so she can take a much-needed break.
In a story with notes of tenderness and some very relatable humor, a devoted teacher knows what really matters at the end of the day: the care and well-being of her students.
Now more than ever, we're aware of all that teachers do for us and future generations, receiving very little in return. You Be Teacher embodies the true giving nature of educators, with a heartfelt thank-you in its conclusion.
"Be prepared to have fun when you enter Ms. C’s room. Well-chosen rhymes throughout the story add to the spirited fun. It’s clear that Ms. C loves her students, and they love her right back. She gives her students “an A for a job well done,” and readers will give this book high marks for its energetic portrait of a fun-loving, compassionate classroom headed by a creative teacher. Brown-skinned Ms. C’s small, racially diverse class includes a student who uses a wheelchair, one who relies on forearm crutches, and one wearing what appears to be noise-canceling headphones. A playful story championing a caring learning community that empowers all its members."—Kirkus
