The Magical Ms. Plum
by Bonny Becker
illustrated by Amy Portnoy
Ms. Plum has a very special third grade classroom. All of the students at
Springtime Elementary School wish they could be in her class.
What is it that makes it Ms. Plum special? Maybe it is her neat and tidy way
of doing things. Maybe it is her menagerie of pets and their cages. Maybe,
just maybe, it is her supply closet.
Magical things happen when Ms. Plum sends a student to the supply cabinet.
Blackbirds, monkeys, and squirrels come out of the cabinet as just the right
times, for just the right students.
How does this happen? Maybe it is magic. Maybe it is Ms. Plum. Whatever it
is, Ms. Plumıs students learn valuable lessons that change the way they
think.
Students will love this book and will find the characters relatable, funny,
and very real. The author has delivered up a story that will have the
readers looking at their own personality traits in a whole new light. The
illustrations are line drawings that add an extra special treat to this
fantastical story!
This book makes me want to go back to elementary schooljust as long as I
have Ms. Plum as a teacher.
