"First Grade Takes a Test" by Miriam Cohen (Preowned Paperback)

This timely book goes right to the heart of the school testing issue. When the lady from the principle's office brings in a test for the first grade class, the children find that none of the proffered answers are exactly right, so they have trouble with the test.

Fortunately, their teacher knows what's really important: being creative and being a good friend, things that can't be found on a standarized test. This is a great book to remind people that being smartest on a test may not be all that matters in the classroom.

Original 1980 illustrations by Lillian Hoban.
