Brief reviews and thoughts about children's and young adult books by Minnesota authors (or illustrators), or about Minnesota. If I get the urge, it may also include ideas for using the books in the classroom. The emphasis is on books published since 1995, but don't be surprised if an oldie-but-goodie slips in occasionally.

What Teachers Can't Do
To go along with "What Dads..." and "What Moms Can't Do" (reviewed previously) now we add "What Teachers Can't Do". They can spell Mississippi, but not cat; they can twirl the jumprope, but they can't jump; and they have a hard time remembering what 2 + 2 equals. This humorous story by Douglas Wood, illustrated by Doug Cushman, will be enjoyed by young readers, and is also a fun gift for an aspiring elementary teacher.
