Title: The tale [tail edited out] of a teacher
Description: "A junior high school principal once said, 'Good teachers are born teachers, not made into them.' This story shows otherwise. It is about a little boy who at first hates school, but who with the influence of nurturing teachers, supportive friends, and strong role models, grows to love the classroom and chooses it as a career. Included are entertaining descriptions of how his personal life affected that career; colorful accounts of the most memorable students, teachers, and administrators; candid critiques of education reform efforts; and retrospective analysis of how the teaching process worked and didnt work. These sketches, although sometimes surprising, all come straight from the heart." -- Page [4] cover.
