Mr. Wolf's Class by Aron Nels Steinke
4.0
This vibrant graphic novel follows various different characters on their first day of school. Mr Wolf is new to the school and is thrown straight into the chaos of teaching first grade. I really enjoyed reading this book, it even had me chuckling at some points.
The fact that Steinke teaches is reflected well throughout the book, his experience is evident in the tiny details such as having to clean up sticky juice at the end of the day and being roped into playing a game of tag with the children. Normally in books the wolf is the bad guy so it’s nice for him to be the main character for once that isn’t sinister, instead he’s in a position to educate and look after children, a complete role reversal if you like. Part of me wants to find the next book in the series so that I can find out what other madness Mr Wolf’s class gets up to!
