The Noisy Classroom by Angela Shante

Silver Medalist, 2020 Wishing Shelf Book Awards: Books for 6–8 Year Olds Winner, 2020 American Fiction Awards for Best Cover Design: Children's Books Finalist, 2020 American Fiction Awards for Children's Fiction The first day of school is coming… and I'm going to be in the noisy class. Any class but the noisy class will do! A young girl is about to enter the third grade, but this year she's put into Ms. Johnson's noisy class. Everything about the noisy class is odd. While all the other classes are quiet, Ms. Johnson sings and the kids chatter all day. The door is always closed, yet sounds from it can be heard in the hallway. With summer coming to an end and school starting, the girl realizes that soon she'll be going to the noisy class. What will school be like now? Featuring the honest and delightful humor of debut author Angela Shanté and the bold, graphic imagery of debut illustrator Alison Hawkins, The Noisy Classroom encourages those with first-day jitters to reevaluate a scary situation by looking at it from a different angle and to embrace how fun school can be, even in nontraditional ways.

--Children's Bookwatch

"Cartoon-style illustrations depict a diverse group of classmates, and show their humorous facial expressions. . . nontraditional teaching and learning style of Ms. Johnson's classroom is appealing."
--School Library Journal

"This is a great back-to-school read, especially for any little who may be anxious about a new classroom and a new teacher. It's also a perfect book to gift a *new* teacher--as it encourages innovation in teaching and portrays the positive impact a creative and dedicated teacher can have on a student's attitude toward learning."
