This book will delight anyone – young and old- who deals with schools, students, teachers, and principals.

For teachers – you will see it could be worse with a principal like the one in the story.
For parents – not only are your children studying hard to get an education, but others spend long hours to get them there as well.
For principals – hand this book to your teachers to remind them how lucky they are.
