Synopsis
This inspiring book features 25 touching, hilarious, eye-opening, and true tales about the most frustrating, intimidating, underpaid, and wonderful job in the world. In schools across America, in classes for handicapped, gifted, privileged, and disadvantaged students, these teachers recall that exciting first year, when they were often given the toughest kids and the biggest responsibilities of their careers. From coping with inner-city diversity to challenging poor self-esteem, these extraordinary images come straight from people who have already taken those first courageous steps of the novice educator. For anyone who is contemplating teaching as a profession, this invaluable collection is a must-read. "Vivid, poignant, and often funny stories about one of the most challenging experiences anyone can have: first-year teaching."--Albert Shanker, President, American Federation of Teachers

    Item arrived within expected window of delivery. It was packaged in such a way so that item would not damaged during shipping. Item was actually better than described in eBay ad. It had been described as "Very Good," but it actually could be described as "Fine," "NOS," or "Like New," because it looked like a brand new copy! Great value for the price. Very happy with my purchase experience with this seller.

    Remember when EBay was fun…a buyer looking for a particular item, finding a seller with the perfect item, honestly described and willing to answer any questions and provide photos? Remember when coming to agreement on a price wasn’t “adversarial”, just buyer and seller discussing what a “fair” price might be for both? Remember how happy you would be as a buyer when what you received was exactly what you expected! Well, this seller is that kind of seller. Terrific, great communicator. A+++++!
