Will make your heart sing

Sometimes, when we read a book, we just want to feel good. We want to feel that the hard work and dedication to something we believe in, is in fact worth it. If you agree with these statements, Caterpillar Kisses by Christine Pisera Naman is a book you don't want to miss. Pisera Naman is a former kindergarten teacher who, while teaching and caring for numerous classes over the years, watched her charges change from wiggly little caterpillars to confident new butterflies. Along the way Pisera Naman realizes that not only are the children learning about themselves and their world but that she is learning and changing also. The twelve vignettes shared in this little book are poignant, funny, exhilarating, hopeful and life-affirming. And they can only be told by an adult who cares enough to really see the miracles of life through the eyes of children. For anyone who wants and needs to see the magic in the world.

a great book!

I love this book! I'm not a teacher, but I came across this cute book and I just couldn't put it down. It's the kind of book you can pick up again and again to lift your spirits with its heartwarming stories. Pick it up!

LOVE THIS LITTLE BOOK!

I just happened to pick up this precious little book while I was in the bookstore the other day and had to buy it! After reading it, I came to this site to buy copies for all of my children's teachers! It is so delightful and inspirational, I'm spreading the word to all of my friends so they can do the same. This is a must have for parents, children, and the PERFECT answer for that hard to decide on end of the year gift for teachers. Buy this book in multiples! You'll love it!
