Summary: Miss Nelson Is A Lifesaver
Review: ... we read about 9 stories a day (2 circle times in the morning and 1 story time in the afternoon before our sing along time)I often end up repeating the same books over and over because we simply run out of stories with all those circle times for the last 7 months. I saw the Miss Nelson book while browsing in a book store on my way to class(I am also a full time college student). I remembered the book title but not the story. I bought it and took it to work and the kids went wild. They loved it. The Next week I ordered Miss Nelson is Back and Miss Nelson Has A Field Day. They know every word by heart. They also love acting it out. This is a must have on any teachers list.

Summary: Want to Know Miss Nelson Is Missing!
Review: All teachers will absolutely love this book. I get a kick out of the student's response to Miss Nelson absence.Note to the Teacher: Good story to Compare and Contrast the teachers with. A Venn Diagramor or an Art activity to show the differences in the two teachers.

Summary: Miss Nelson is Missing
Review: As I mentioned in my review of "Stinky Cheeseman and Other Fairly Stupid Tales," I am taking a Children's Lit class in college, which requires me to read a lot of children's books. So, this is a great excuse for me to write more reviews. If you want to make fun of me for liking these books, so be it. I could care less. "Miss Nelson is Missing" was always a childhood favorite for me. One of my first picture books I ever read, I think. I even remember that my copy came with a record that you could listen along to as you read. Wow, does that bring back memories. I picked this up a few days ago, and found myself enjoying it as much as I did when I was little, if not more. This is a book about a sweet and nice teacher who has one of the most terrible classes ever. Everyone is mean and nobody ever listens to her. Miss Nelson knows that something has to be done. One day, when she doesn't arrive to class, the children are so happy. They think they have driven her away forever. They are all smiles and grins.....until.... They meet Miss. Viola Swamp, an ugly and mean teacher dressed in black and white makeup. She puts them to work, yells at them, and makes them do tons and TONS of homework. Desperate and worried, the children turn to a detective in order to solve the whereabouts of Miss Nelson. This book is incredible. Fun for all ages, especially the young ones. It's fun and gives a good moral lesson at the same time. It has great writing and very cool pictures. The reading level is pretty easy. Nothing too mind-bending behind it. I recommend "Miss Nelson is Missing!" to ANYONE! Yes, I don't care how old you are. You're never too old to enjoy a good children's book, and I'm starting to re-discover that. Check this one out whenever you can. And if you have kids, I can almost promise you that this will be a favorite.

Summary: Miss Nelson is Missing!
Review: I am a college student and I must say that this was a favorite among the books I read as a child, and it is a great book to read to young children, especially at the beginning of their school year. It has many morals, and many lessons that can be learned such as appreciating your teacher, respecting him/her and knowing how to behave in a classroom. It is a great book to use, especially for new teacher and substitute teachers. It has a great plot and children love it!

Summary: Good Books follow generations
Review: I first read Miss Nelson when I was seven. I loved the story about the evil substitute teacher Miss Viola Swamp. Now I am a mother of two, one twelve and one eight. Both have read and enjoyed the story of Miss Nelson, and now my eight year old wants the other two books for his collection. Every teacher should read Miss Nelson is Missing to their class. I loved it then and still enjoy the story today. As a future teacher, I intend to read it to my students.
