Honesty is always best...

JAMAICA AND THE SUBSTITUTE TEACHER, by Juanita Havill
AR Level: 2.6 Points: .5
Interest Level: Elementary

When Jamaica meets her substitute teacher, the only thing she can think about is how much she wants to impress her with how smart she is. She is successful with all the day’s activities, until it comes time for the spelling test. During the test, she cheats. Does the teacher catch her? Does she get away with it? You'll have to read the book to find out!

Teachers: This is a great book for teaching the importance of honesty. It would be a great read aloud for a second or third grade class
