About the design
Coffee, Books & Teaching is the honest motto of every reading teacher. Coffee gets you through first period and the stack of essays still waiting on the kitchen table. Books are the shelf behind your desk and the read-aloud your class begs you to stretch to one more chapter. Teaching is where you hand that love to a room of kids and watch a reluctant reader finally get hooked. The typewriter lettering nods to the dog-eared classic you first fell for. Find more mottos for the bookish in our books and coffee shirts.

Who it's for
Reading teachers, librarians and book club hosts get the coffee and books shirt joke on sight. A teacher appreciation present, the tee belongs with our book lover gifts for teachers. Each shirt is printed in the USA in 1 to 2 days, ships free and arrives in 4 to 7 days, with 60-day returns.

Fabric & care
- 🫧 Wash inside out cold
- 🌀 Tumble dry low
- 🚫 No bleach
- 🚫 No fabric softener
Garment-dye process
The Comfort Colors 1717 is dyed after full garment construction. Post-construction dyeing pre-shrinks the fabric, resulting in less than 3% shrinkage after home washing. Surface tone variation exists across individual units – no two shirts carry an identical shade. That variation is the point.
