LOVE IT. I think its something very important to remember. Teachers have the ability to light a spark in their students or god forbid: blow it out. This boys entire day was ordinary until that one person walked into it and everything came to life. That's beautiful to me. The illustrations of the book are only black and white at the beginning - everything ordinary. By the time, a teacher brought some music and tells them to be creative and write about whatever they want, then the illustrations become more and more colorful. A wonderful book that describes how important it is to dream, be confident and be creative An ordinary young boy embarks on an ordinary day in this seemingly ordinary picture-book, in which everything - brushing his teeth, getting dressed, having his breakfast, kissing his mother goodbye, and heading for school - happens in the expected order, and expected fashion. Until, that is, a most unusual new teacher arrives in the boy's classroom, complete with musical accoutrement and an unconventional assignment for the boy and his fellow students. Is the new teacher bonkers? Or is something extraordinary about to occur...? Readers of Once Upon an Ordinary School Day will likely know the answer to that question long before the conclusion of the story, but watching the boy discover the joy, the magic even, of storytelling - watching his imagination soar - is still a rewarding experience. Satoshi Kitamura's artwork, which moves from dull black-and-white scenes to vibrantly colorful vistas, once the boy's new teacher enters the story, perfectly captures the joy of the boy's journey to a greater understanding of the possibilities of writing, and other creative pursuits. All in all, this was an engaging picture-book, with a satisfying story-line, and appealing illustrations (I think I liked the wordless pages the best!), one I would recommend to young readers who sometimes feel that reading and writing are a little dull.

Colin's day started out like every other day - his breakfast was ordinary, his walk to school was ordinary, even his thoughts were ordinary. But the new teacher at school changed all that when he told the class about an extraordinary idea. A celebration of extraordinary teachers! The boy's breakfast is ordinary, his walk to school is ordinary, even his thoughts are ordinary. But when he goes to his classroom and sits down at his desk, his day begins to change - a new teacher, Mr. Gee, bursts into the classroom with an extraordinary idea that challenges all the children to use their imagination. Suddenly an ordinary day is turned topsy-turvy, and the boy is inspired in a way that will change him forever. The rollicking words and pictures celebrate the unexpected in this tribute to great teachers and students everywhere. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |

I think this shows how kids need that time to express themselves and that there are right times to do it.
