Product Description
Now that Russell’s teacher’s done passed away, maybe Hominy Ridge School will be shut down for good and he can light out for the endless skies of the Dakotas to join a team of harvesters working the new 1904 all-steel threshing machines. No such luck. Russell and his schoolmates are about to be ruled by a new teacher who is Russell’s worst nightmare—his sister. Russell’s going to do whatever it takes to sink the school, even if it means resorting to stealing supplies, rustic vandalism, torching a boy’s privy, and rustling up more snakes than you can shake a stick at.

The Teacher’s Funeral is a delightful read for grades 5 up through adult. Set in 1904 it will help you realize just how far “school” has come and the things that make us human that we all have in common. The funeral sermon is the funniest yet. The main character is thrilled to find out the one room schoolhouse teacher has died. He is hoping school will be canceled. Much to his amazement, the new teacher is his sister, Tansy. He tells her that teaching doesn’t seem like good honest work to him!
The Teacher’s Funeral is full of funny high jinks. There is a lot of good vocabulary and expressive language, too. I highly recommend The Teacher’s Funeral for your classroom or an enjoyable read for yourself
