K-Gr 3 -Mrs. Hartwell -s students are worried about how sad she -ll be and how much she -ll miss them when school lets out for the summer. They look for the perfect gift to help her remember them and decide to make a poster with a poem and drawings featuring all of the things that they -ll miss about school, especially their teacher. Bursting with color, the cartoon illustrations look at the experience from both sides with hilarious results. The characters - faces are highly expressive and run the gamut of emotions throughout the book. As the children wrack their brains for the perfect present, a group of teachers can be seen in the distance planning their vacations with great excitement. A story with both child and teacher appeal." -Genevieve Gallagher, Murray Elementary School, Charlottesville, VA" Copyright 2006 School Library Journal, LLC Used with permission.
