The real-life, classic story of a dyslexic girl and the teacher who
would not let her fail. A perfect gift for teachers and for reading
students of any age.
Patricia Polacco is now one of America's most loved children's book
creators, but once upon a time, she was a little girl named Trisha
starting school. Trisha could paint and draw beautifully, but when she
looked at words on a page, all she could see was jumble. It took a very
special teacher to recognize little Trisha's dyslexia: Mr. Falker, who
encouraged her to overcome her reading disability. Patricia Polacco will
never forget him, and neither will we.
This inspiring story is available in a deluxe slipcased edition,
complete with a personal letter to readers from Patricia Polacco
herself. Thank You, Mr. Falker will make a beautiful gift for the
special child who needs encouragement&150or any special teacher who has
made a difference in the child's life.
