She is my favorite teacher--
As nice as she can be
The way she always smiles and winks
I know that she likes me.
She reads my favorite books--
The ones I like to hear
I'd choose her name, if I could vote,
For Teacher of the Year!
But when I say her name
She looks at me and laughs
She says I always make her day
When she hears "Miss Giraffe".
Her teacher friends just beam
And pat me on the head--
They say "You are the cutest thing!
Repeat what you just said!"
So all day long, aloud,
I call her "Miss Giraffe"
While other kids, who can't pronounce,
Just call her "Mrs. Kraft"!
