Thank You, Teacher! by Ziva and Zoe Salay

Thank You, Teacher!

Every Year in May we celebrate NATIONAL TEACHER DAY and TEACHER APPRECIATION WEEK. It is also common to celebrate and Thank teachers during year-end holiday breaks (like Christmas, Hanukkah, etc.) and Summer break. But we believe that EVERYDAY is a good day to say THANK YOU to a Teacher!

THIS BOOK IS AVAILABLE IN PAPERBACK for OFFLINE GIFT GIVING.

Teachers have such a profound impact on our lives and our future. Teachers help us to recognize our potential, discover our passions and to follow our dreams. A compassionate and inspiring teacher is often the catalyst that propels a child to truly realize and explore his/her own personal talents, abilities, and greatness.

This book is designed to let a special teacher know that you recognize just how impactful his/her role is in student development. This is a perfect way for parents of students in Preschool and K-8 to thank a special teacher.
