My Teacher Is My Hero: Tributes to the People Who Gave Us Knowledge, Motivation, and Wisdom

This book collects some superb stories of teachers that have influenced our lives. Often touching, funny and inspirational, each story is a personal account of the positive energy created from the truly generous and caring nature of our educators. This is a great book for all to read as it lets us remember the influential teachers we may have had in the past, and is a great gift for any teacher you know. To be a teacher is to be willing to give a gift to future generations, and this book wonderfully illustrates the ways those magnificent gifts are received.

What a great idea! I bought the book after a friend recommended it and i read it all the way through in three days! Really inspiring. I will buy another copy for my nephew who teaches. I hope they come out with others because this is so much better than the Chicken Soup books where the editors seem to let any kind of writing in the series. 5 stars!

I was scrambling to find the perfect gift for my son's teacher and heard about this book. It only took a quick flip through the pages to have me laughing, crying, then running to the cash register to buy it. I am buying additional copies for my teachers as the school year closes as gifts, as they sum up the way I feel (without me having to write it). I strongly recommend this book!!
