“I’m tired. I’m stressed. I’m overwhelmed,” he said. “I need to work.”
He forgot “I’m stupid”
It does seem odd that this causes such a stir, but many other far more damaging public school practices (and their promotors) are cheered. Disordered thinking would explain it.
Such a punchable face.
No. But Dr. Seuss did not like children. Dr. Seuss (Theodor Seuss Geisel) wasn’t a fan of children and was even “slightly afraid” of them, according to his wife, Audrey Geisel.

Poor taste used to be regarded as an offense against society.
I’ll read the book before I comment. Humor can be useful in teaching.
Prolly some Lincoln Project hpjerks trying to brand Republicans again.
Look at the book cover and explain how that isn’t grooming.
Perhaps he should have read them something from the old Classics of Literature, such as Gargantua/Chapter XIII.
When I was in elementary school, just mentioning ‘butt’ would earn us a backhand across the face.
Nowadays, they can pretty much say anything they want (on TV, at home, or in school).
The problem was it was Mississippi. In some more enlightened locations, it is fine to read to 2nd graders a nice sweet story about how a boy needs a second hole in his behind.
In 4th grade I was reading books on great Americans. Well remember reading about George Washington Carver. Didn’t think much about him being black. Wasn’t a big deal then.
“I’m tired. I’m stressed. I’m overwhelmed,” he said. “I need to work.”
Then get a *real* job, ya doink.
This isn't the "Beavis & Butthead" show for 2nd grader's ... they'll learn and laugh about "farts" and "butts" and all the other adolescent biological "funnies" when they turn 13, in the 7th grade when their hormones start raging.
What in heck is wrong with these 'educators' nowadays?? Why can't they just let the children be children to enjoy their fleeting childhood for a few years before they hit adolescence, and then adulthood, only to find out how shitty perverts like this 'educator' treated them when they were young ... ruining their childhood ...
Mostly they are books about kids from 5-9 years and what they think and say.
I went to Amazon and was thinking about buying this 32 page kids book, but is was sold out.
I know nothing about the teacher but getting fired because of the title of a "See Spot Run" book, and not a single reference as to the content of the book except for a kid with a "crack in his butt" seems a little harsh.
The wokesters are bad, but the holyrollers can be just as bad in reverse.
“I’m tired. I’m stressed. I’m overwhelmed,” he said. “I need to work.”
Step into this alleyway, I’d like to talk to you for a moment.
He should have just read them a book about a boy who wants to cut off his penis. I’m sure that would have been just fine with his educator peers.
Sad. The knee jerk reaction brigade, based on the headline, must assume this book is some sexuality tinged story. It’s not. It’s on a par with jokes about boogers, belches, farts and similar silliness. In an age before schools destroyed our children’s innocence we’d understand this was a crude book not one needing this overreaction. Hope you all enjoy being part of the cancel crowd.
