No teacher has ever appreciated Jackie's excessive enthusiasm, until Ms. Sugarman.  When Ms. Sugarman leaves the fourth grade to become principal, Jackie is devastated.  "The honest and caring relationship between [Jackie] and Ms. Sugarman is one that every student and teacher might envy.  Solid characterizations, with good insight into the difference an understanding teacher can make." —SLJ.  "A funny, heartwarming story with a very real little girl at it heart. Any student who has ever idolized a wonderful teacher will sympathize with Jackie."  —ALA Booklist   1995 Charlie May Simon Children's Book Honor Award (AR)
