This book has dozens of pages full of stickers for teachers! There are 650 stickers of all kinds about teaching and education. My favorite is the one that says “Don’t Lick the Desk”. Been there. haha!

And so many of them have cool sayings like, “Never Getting That Pencil Back”, “Don’t Make Me Use My Teacher Voice”, “Tea Then Teach”, and a whole bunch more.
