Notice About Books Thank You, Mr. Falker

As a teacher of children with special needs since the late 1970s, I have to say that I loved this book. When I first read this book several years ago, I was moved to tears. The story of a little girl who is so excited to learn how to read, and who, when the time comes, just cannot put the sounds and letters together, exemplify the struggles so many children deal with on a daily basis. When I first entered the field of special education, there were an abundance of theories on how to reach these

The best teachers are the ones who persist until they see every child succeed, no matter what is hindering them in their education. Trisha is a student who struggles greatly with reading fluently, but is an amazing artist. None of her teachers knew how to train Trisha to read until she reached the fifth grade and was in Mr. Falker's class. This patient man, through creative means, teaches Trisha how to read and changes her life forever. This excellent book not only teaches to never give up on

Lovely true story about a girl who struggles to learn to read and the teacher who finally helps her. My youngest sister didn't learn to read until she was ten, and I thank the good Lord every time I read something like this that she wasn't in school. As a home schooler, I think it was just kind of disappointing for her that she didn't learn when her older sisters had, but had she been in school, I think she would have had a miserable time. And since she's now a very intelligent adult who gets

I think it's safe to say that in earlier eras, and even to some extent today, learning disabilities, mental disabilities and educational challenges are not well understood. Oftentimes letting a student get by just to be rid of them, or worse yet convincing them that they simply can't do something and shouldn't try, are two common attitudes. I'm sure many of us wished we had a teacher like Mr. Falker at some point during the mandatory years of school. Thank You, Mr. Falker is both an encouraging

In Thank you, Mr. Falker (1998) renowned author and illustrator, Patricia Polacco, draws heavily from her own experience as a child who struggled to read. Her tale is at once tender, at times heartbreaking, and ultimately triumphant. The reader meets Trisha, the protagonist, in one of the earliest scenes in her reading lifethose fleeting moments between wanting to read, not knowing how to read, and believing that, as the narrator says, the promise to read was at last hers [that] soon she was

Based on the author/illustrator's own experiences as a child, this picture book is a loving tribute to the patience of teachers who try to meet the needs of all their students. The main character loved books and words as a child, and she can't wait to read them for herself, something heralded when her grandmother spoons out honey on the top of a book and describes the sweetness of knowledge. But the sweetness of reading eludes Tricia as the letters seem to jumble up together. When her classmates
