A teacher tells his student's mother, "Mrs. Minton, there's no such thing as a bad boy. Hostile, perhaps. Aggressive, recalcitrant, destructive, even sadistic. But not bad." An administrator escorting prospective parents through a classroom says, "We've created a safe, nonjudgmental environment that will leave your child ill-prepared for real-life." A teacher answers a little boy with, "I'm sorry, Timmy, but you are wrong. You are terribly, terribly wrong." Current and former educators will find plenty to chuckle about in this collection of 118 New Yorker cartoons by a variety of artists. It's sure to be a permanent fixture in the teachers' lounge!
