Teaching Mrs. Muddle

Fall in love at first blunder with a wisely foolish kindergarten teacher who makes the first day of school an experience to remember.

Kayla isnt too sure about the first day of kindergarten. What if she misses her mom? What if she cant find the bathroom? But when Kayla meets Mrs. Muddle, it quickly becomes clear that Kaylas problems are nothing compared to her teachers. Mrs. Muddle mixes up the kids name tags, takes them to the library instead of the gym, and cant find the bathroom. She doesnt even know how to use a slide properly! Clearly somebody needs to take charge. Soon Kayla is much too busy teaching her teacher to think about her own worries.

Hearkening back to classics like The Amelia Bedelia collection and Douglas Woods What Teachers Cant Do, Colleen Nelson will make parents, children, and especially teachers laugh out loud over Mrs. Muddles antics and the exasperated Kaylas leadership. As the students find their way around the school, Alice Carters giggle-inducing art welcomes readers into a kindergarten class that makes the first day of school seem very appealing indeed.
