Read this, then go hug a teacher
My kids have had great teachers, and my kids have had terrible teachers. Reading 32 Third Graders and One Class Bunny, I found myself loving the great ones even more, and even feeling a bit more tolerant towards the terrible ones.

And then, of course, there was also the laughing.

This year's end-of-year teacher gifts? Done, thanks to Done. -Mir

You can pick up 32 Third Graders and One Class Bunny
