Because You Are My Teacher

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Marcellus Hall. North and Hall use their formula from Because You Are My Baby and Because You Are My Daddy to describe the teacher-student relationship; instead of exploring a tender emotional bond, they flit through an arbitrary geography lesson: "Because you are our teacher, / We'll explore the world with you." Soft watercolors taking readers from Antarctica to Venice have the greatest appeal.
