Overview

A 2002 INTERNATIONAL READING ASSOCIATION/CHILDREN'S BOOK COUNCIL CHILDREN'S CHOICE SELECTION

"Rice is especially good with facial expressions, whether they are on a Texas jackrabbit, a longhorn steer, a dusty cowboy, or the green and long-nosed alligator named Gaston ."
-Library Journal

Pop quiz: How does Santa deliver his presents to good educators on Christmas Eve? Keep your eyes on your own book and find the answer!
Nothing compares to the excitement of children as Christmas approaches. Imagine the havoc in classrooms across the country on the last days of school before the holiday!
This pedagogical twist on the Christmas classic will delight teachers (and even students) everywhere. The traditional trappings of Christmas at school-the Christmas pageant, a visit to a local nursing home, crafts, and the room mothers' party-all end in chaos, while the teachers struggle to maintain order, and, after school, get their own shopping done. In a whimsical touch, Santa Claus arrives in his flying school bus to save the day. Teachers are sure to see themselves in this humorous parody based on the true stories of their peers.

Exhausted from parties and pageants at school but with presents still to buy, teachers are greeted at the mall by an unexpected helper driving a flying schoolbus.

    I bought this book for many teacher friends!

    I got such a kick out of reading this book. It is actually so true, making it soooo funny! One can tell that Dr. Layne has been in a classroom or two during the pre-holidays! I got several copies of this book to give to my teacher friends!

    I purchased the book only because I made a connection with the story. I am a a teacher, and I thought it would be nice to share with my students the struggles of Christmat shopping for teachers. They really enjoyed it.

    Captured the true 'teacher' season!

    The Teachers' Night Before Christmas is a book that truly captivated the pre-season life of all educators. I love the way the book illustrates all of the things that teachers do for their students! This is a book that any teacher would love and appreciate!
