A moving celebration of school and all it may signify: work and play, creativity and trust, and a supportive community that extends beyond walls
¡Bienvenidos a la escuela!
Una escuela no es solo un edificio. Son sus estudiantes, sus maestros, sus ayudantes, sus directores, su personal y sus bibliotecarios… todas las personas que trabajan, aprenden y celebran juntas. Una escuela es un lugar para hacer descubrimientos y plantear preguntas. Es un lugar para explorar, para intentar y algunas veces para fallar, pero también para confiar. Es una comunidad para compartir y ayudar. Una escuela es un lugar para reunirse.
Este es el primer libro ilustrado de John Schu, uno de los maestros y bibliotecarios más queridos de Estados Unidos y un campeón global de la lectura y la literatura infantil. Con las ilustraciones exuberantes, cálidas e incluyentes de Veronica Miller Jamison, Esta es una escuela ofrece una jubilosa oda a la vida diaria en las escuelas que hará que los pequeños de todas partes se sientan emocionados al pensar en ese primer gran día.
A school isn’t just a building; it is all the people who work and learn together. It is a place for discovery and asking questions. A place for sharing, for helping, and for community. It is a place of hope and healing, even when that community can’t be together in the same room. John Schu, a librarian and former ambassador of school libraries for Scholastic, crafts a loving letter to schools and the people that make up the communities within in a picture book debut beautifully illustrated by Veronica Miller Jamison.
