Because I Had a Teacher — New York Times best seller Hardcover – Picture Book, March 1, 2017

This book captures the impact a teacher can have on a student's life in such a thoughtful and warm way. The story is simple but powerful, and the illustrations add a lovely charm to the message.What I appreciated most is that it feels relevant not just for teachers, but also for mentors, coaches, and anyone who's helped shape someone's path. It focuses on the emotional side of learning, like confidence, imagination, and support, rather than just academics.It makes a meaningful and personal gift for someone who's made a difference in your life.

This book tugs at your heart strings. It really shares the impact that teachers have on students. I’ve bought this book twice to gift to teachers for teacher appreciation week & they always comment how the book makes them cry.

This book is adorable. Perfect for your favorite teacher

Such a sweet book for teachers! Loved it!

Great retirement gift for a colleague! I had all of our current students sign the pages kind of like a yearbook. It was really meaningful.

We got this as a gift for our teacher, and it was her favorite gift by far! It made her cry—such a sweet and touching book. It’s a great reminder to teachers of how important and impactful they are. Perfect for showing appreciation!

I am who I am because of you, and I'm forever thankful for your educational gifts.

Bought for a retiring teacher and had teachers and students sign it
