Rose’s teacher gives stars for spelling and neatness and giving the right answer, but Rose can’t manage to do any of those things right. Will she ever get a star from Mrs. Benson?Rose is a distracted and creative soul. She does her best at school, but sometimes her mind wanders, and she answers the wrong question. Her reading voice is quiet, not strong and loud. And her desk?—?well, keeping her desk neat is a challenge. When it’s time to make thank-you cards for a class visitor, Rose’s art supplies turn her workspace?—and her?—?into a colorful mess. But her artistic skills shine through in the gorgeous oversize card she creates. Could she possibly get a star after all? A cheerful and empowering picture book for the child whose talents lie in unconventional areas, and those still searching for their strengths.

From School Library Journal PreS-Gr 1—Will Rose ever earn a star on her teacher's blackboard? Mrs. Benson only seems to hand them out for achievements like spelling correctly, being neat, and raising one's hand to answer correctly. Rose, on the other hand, is a daydreamer who is more talented at wielding a paintbrush than at completing math problems and cleaning messy desks. It seems as if Rose will forever be starless until the surprising moment that Mrs. Benson congratulates her on a noteworthy artistic achievement: the best and biggest card for visiting artist Mr. Sullivan. Fortunately, she has just enough time afterward to draw her own star…and a special one for Mrs. Benson. Mann's stylized cartoons feature Mrs. Benson with thin, spindly legs and the kids with round misshapen heads. They perfectly suit the book's overall theme, which emphasizes the ultimate rewards for following one's own path as Rose does at the story's end. Any child with a special talent should appreciate Rose's struggles and enjoy the triumphant moment when she is rewarded for her efforts, both for an artistic masterpiece, and for finally cleaning up. For a similar story by this author/illustrator about an odd girl who is appreciated for her differences by an unlikely new friend, try Two Speckled Eggs, a worthy book about school friendships and acceptance. VERDICT A unique addition to school-themed picture book collections.—Etta Anton, Yeshiva of Central Queens, NY
Review Mann, in her second book as both author and illustrator, works with assurance as she puts her jittery ink line and layered washes of color to work in the service of both emotional vulnerability and schoolroom slapstick without missing a beat.... Mann is well on her way to becoming a champion portrayer of those who color outside the lines or march to a different drum.—Publishers Weekly (starred review)Mann's ink, gouache, and digital collage illustrations play up the dichotomy between Rose, a pink-cheeked redhead with untied shoes, and Mrs. Benson, an older Caucasian woman with grayish hair in a bun...Readers will certainly empathize with Rose.—Kirkus ReviewsThis warm, generous outing will appeal to children both with and without a polished sense of self.—Booklist

Mann uses some of her personal experiences in the classroom as a child to write and illustrate this book which you and your child will enjoy reading.Sometimes in a classroom, there are children who have talents different from other children. In our story, Rose was a day dreamer. Rose was creative and artistic. She felt there were so many things she could not do well, until one day, the teacher gave her the praise she deserved for being artistic and creative.The ending could not have been any better with Rose receiving a special star. You will enjoy seeing how Rose praises her teacher too. The reader can sense that the classroom setting may become a more friendly place for Rose.This book has a great message for all of us: adults and children.*I received this for review - all opinions are my own*
0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Celebrating Our Different Gifts and Talents By tvtv3 Rose is a young girl who is the narrator in I WILL NEVER GET A STAR ON MRS. BENSON'S BLACKBOARD. Rose likes school, but she can't seem to do anything correctly to get a star on Mrs. Benson's blackboard. She struggles with math, doesn't have a loud speaking voice, is clumsy, and is incredibly messy. While listening to a special speaker named Mr. Sullivan, who is an artist, Rose realizes that she is an artist, too. When the students have a chance to make thank you cards for Mr. Sullivan, Rose wants hers to be the best. However, in the process she makes a big mess and she just knows she'll never get a star on Mrs. Benson's blackboard. But, Mrs. Benson is an expert teacher and sees things the students don't. I WILL NEVER GET A STAR ON MRS. BENSON'S BLACKBOARD is a really cute story with a good message (about the different talents we have) that can be appreciated by both children and adults.

For every kid (even when they're adults) who wants to be accepted for who she is By Maureen Milliken This is a lovely, heartwarming book that's a must for anyone who is "a little bit different." As an adult who struggled as a child to meet teachers' expectations, no matter how hard I tried, I found Rose's triumph a vindication. We constantly harp to kids to be themselves, but what everyone really seems to want is for them to be neat, attentive and obedient. This book is for all the kids who can't be locked in that box. I loved it so much, I kept the copy I'd bought for my niece and bought another for her.Aside from the well-done, non-trite story, the illustrations are bright and unique, like Rose herself.Thanks Jennifer Mann for given kids like me (though it's four decades later) a voice.
