Description
Once a restless second-grader, the narrator looks back on a pivotal year with a teacher who refused to give up on her—turning frustration into growth and potential into purpose. Through the intimate format of a letter, she traces the moments that tested her, the lessons that stuck, and the quiet encouragement that helped her find her voice. Blending humor, honesty, and heartfelt reflection, the story explores themes of mentorship, perseverance, and the transformative power of believing in a child. With Deborah Hopkinson’s accessible, emotionally resonant storytelling, this is a moving tribute to educators who see beyond behavior and help students become who they’re meant to be.
