This Is a School

Beschreibung

“This beautiful book points out the many elements that make up a school, but—most important—it shines a light on the value of a supportive community every day of the year.” —The New York Times Book Review A school isn’t just a building; it is all the people who work and learn together. It is a place for discovery and asking questions. A place for sharing, for helping, and for community. It is a place of hope and healing, even when that community can’t be together in the same room. John Schu, a librarian and ambassador of school libraries for Scholastic, crafts a loving letter to schools and the people that make up the communities within in a picture book debut beautifully illustrated by Veronica Miller Jamison.
