Review: Sweet, profound, feeling, more than just for children.

This little book is profound. If affected me in many directions. My immediate reaction was how much I ached for a puppy or a kitten as a child and I felt deeply for little Janie. Then I thought, how cleverly the teacher handled a situation in which many teachers might have become simply annoyed and would have dismissed a child to the back of the room or otherwise chastised a misbehaved child. But this teacher dug deeper and averted, and possibly assuaged, a possible lifelong trauma. Yes, the book is very short. But some of the most profound sayings are but a few words. Highly recommended.
