Young Patricia recalls the teacher who took her seriously and taught her to write. Accompanied by her distinctive illustrations, Polacco's over-long text centers on a student who creates a successful narrative by writing about someone she loves and respects. The book, Polacco's sixth about the important teachers who shaped her, is just such a tribute; the message is loud and clear.
