(3) 4-6 Fifth grader Bettina adores her new art teacher, Mr. Popart, who lets students draw on the walls and create controversial art pieces. However, some financially influential parents object to his alternative ways and demand his termination. Devastated, Bettina and her friends devise a plan to save their teacher. Quirky characters and lively fine-art-inspired black-and-white drawings enhance this creative tale.
