Teacher Gave Me Wings [Hardcover]

Becky Kelly (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: March 1, 2004

When I longed to see the world,

A teacher gave me wings...

And urged me always to exploreThe in and out of things.

Our favorite teachers make us feel that we'll succeed at anything we try. In this charming gift book, richly illustrated with artist Becky Kelly's spirit-infused watercolor illustrations, we find the best way to thank the teachers in our lives. Our favorite teachers swell with pride when we succeed and seem to sense when we are lost, finding the perfect words to make us feel okay. A Teacher Gave Me Wings reminds us that teachers aren't only found in schools--a teacher can be anyone with a generous heart and an open mind. Becky Kelly reminds us "whenever hearts are generous and open minds abound, whenever there's a will to learn...a teacher can be found."
