I have to go to school on Monday;Mrs. James misses us too much on the weekends.
The title of this book came from a conversation between a first grader and his mother. He must have felt that his teacher was pining away every evening, every weekend, and every summer, just waiting to be with the class again. Actually, most teachers fill their off-hours very well with other children and their own children in Sunday School, Y camps, or other community programs.
Don't Miss School on Mondays does the best job of any book I've seen to encourage teachers and other educators to embrace teaching as a higher calling and an act of social justice. Pat James' true stories, required reading from the scriptures, and homework will help any teacher to keep a heart for teaching through the good times and bad. In a society where teachers are asked to do everything and often to do it in a cookie-cutter sort of mentality, Pat instills the art of teaching as well. For the teacher or former teacher, Sunday School teacher, or any educator who cares deeply about children, this look is required reading. I highly recommend it for a heart-lift and a laugh as well.
