30.2 - Katrisa's Task: An Homage to MY 30s

My 30s brought me some wonderful gifts. So this task is for me to raise a glass to my 4th decade!
This is a two book task. Choose two different options.
Required: State your options when you report

Option 1 - My Profession: I went back to school in my 30s to get my teaching degree and have been a kindergarten teacher ever since.
A - Read a book where the main character is a teacher. The teacher must work in a school or academic setting: primary grades - university.
Required: Provide a reference if the profession is not evident from the GR page.
or
B - Read a book shelved as College Setting from the first 25 pages of this list College Setting
Required: State the page.

Option 2 - My Love: In my 30s I left behind tumultuous relationships of my teens and 20s and ended up with my best friend’s brother and we just celebrated our 15th anniversary. Our initials are both letters in the alphabet next to each other but in reverse order (like BA or ON). Read a book where the author’s initials occur in reverse consecutive alphabetical order. If there is a middle initial you may use it or not as it suits.
ex. Stella Rimington, Morgan Llywelyn

Option 3 - My Dog: I was always a cat person but the hubs convinced me to get a dog - and now I am a convert. My little shih-poo is the hugest pain in the a$$ but I could not love him more and now my dog-love has spread to all dogkind. His name is Yub Yub.
Read a book with a repeated word of at least three letters in the TITLE (AND and THE excluded). The repeated words need not be next to each other. Subtitles are excluded.
ex. Gone, Baby, Gone, Absalom, Absalom!, Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow

Would an elementary school principal work for option 1?

No just a teacher.

Can the book for option 1A be nonfiction? (I'm thinking of The Teachers: A Year Inside America's Most Vulnerable, Important Profession)

Yes nonfiction is fine!
