With so many teachers leaving the profession within the first five years - burned out, frustrated, and having lost their inspiration and sense of purpose - this wonderful volume of personal stories gives educators courage to stay the course. Written by practicing educators, this collection of heartfelt stories can inspire and refresh, and remind teachers how they are making a difference. Edited by Kathie-Jo Arnoff with a Foreword by Nel Noddings. 2007. 128 pages. Will ship after October 5.
