Today is One Very Odd Teacher by Robbie Yates Blog Tour!! And I’m honored to have the pleasure of having Robbie on my blog telling you all about ODD TEACHERS! Have you had one before?

Here’s Robbie sharing:

The Three Types of Very Odd Teachers

A Guest Post by Children’s Author Robbie Yates

We’ve all had Very Odd Teachers. What you may not have realized is that 90% of them fit within three broad categories. I’m calling them “the Grump,” “the Ranter,” and “the Oddball.”

1. The Grump
The Grump (also known by the scientific name Grumpius Teacherius), can be clearly identified by his or her tendency to be—well—grumpy! Often heard complaining and muttering, the Grump is likely to spend a large amount of time crossing her arms and frowning.

2. The Ranter

While similar to the Grump, the Ranter (Rantingus Teacherius) is known for going on longwinded rants about such things as “Kids these days,” or how “When I was a child, I walked to school barefoot in the snow, and it was uphill both ways!”

3. The Oddball

The Oddball, while usually harmless, can be more difficult to deal with than The Grump or The Ranter, because his or her behavior is unpredictable. Oddball Teachers have been known to do things like banning the use of the word “cool,” or opening all the classroom windows in the middle of winter “just to get some fresh air.”

***

You might recognize one of these teachers from your own time at school.

Sometimes, a teacher actually fits in more than one of these categories. Imagine a teacher who is snarky, bizarre, and goes off on detailed rants about the wonders of stationery.

Sound a little frightening? Adam Miller certainly thought so. And when he started paying a bit of closer attention to his Very Odd Teacher, he never would have predicted what he’d find out…

‘One Very Odd Teacher’ Book Blurb:

The humming noise got louder. Adam willed himself to focus. He had to finish his math test.

Suddenly, the noise became unbearable. He glanced up.

Mrs Murphy was inches away, leaning over another kid’s desk. Was the noise coming from her?

***

Every child remembers a teacher who was a little bizarre, prickly or ill-tempered. Some teachers, though, are very odd indeed, and warrant some closer attention…

This quirky chapter book will thrill kids who are adventurous, brave, and a little bit cheeky!

Jee’s Brief Review:

This read was a breath of fresh air for me. Getting into the minds of school kids makes me feel young again! Adam and Jennifer are great friends with great minds. And as they say, great minds think alike! I loved their chemistry, and how well they worked together and understood each other.

The book has a simple storyline but the colorful characters made this such a delightful read! I love how the scam was finally discovered by the BFFs and were rewarded accordingly!

Thank you to Shalini at Digital Reads and the author for providing me with this free e-ARC in exchange for my honest review, and as part of the tour.
