Teachers with the Courage to Give: Everyday Heroes Making a Difference in Our Classrooms

wow, dat book was great. but the more incredible part was the johnson park. Ms. Johnson's story was "delicious". When i turned to the page with picture of Ms. Johnson with a feather boa, i immediately dropped the book and i was scared for life. Then, when i mustered enough will power to pick up the book, i started to read the "Johnson" story. At first, i thought it was another dumb story, just like the other ones. but then, at the end, tears slowly trickled down my face and next thing i knew, the book turned to the page with the horrid picture and i dropped the book again. But only this time, on my toe. Although the book did more harm to me and i did to it, i thought that the book was great, especially the Susan Johnson story. Kudos and Accalades to you!

I'm a teacher, and I feel energized! I've been reading Jackie Waldman's book...a few pages at a time. It's hard to put down. I don't know if I love the teachers or the kids more! It's very obvious we are learning from each other. If you love kids, read this book! If you are a teacher or want to know a few great ones, read this book. I hope you will feel the love that has gone into Teachers with the Courage to Give. Thank you Jackie for a great tribute.

loved it, Ms. Johnson, you are a miracle worker

The book was okay, but the section of Ms.Johnson was amazing. I was moved it touched me. She is a miracle women and I love her. Thank you Ms.J for inspiring me.

I must say that I am biased for buying and reading this book cause one of the teachers in this book was my teacher. I love this book cause it shows you how far a teacher will go to enrich their students love of learning. My teacher has changed the way I have percieved my world, and I am forever greatful. She has lead to me to my career path and I am proud to say that I am presidents of several new start up companies. Teachers and students of all ages should read this to see what real teachers are. I guarantee that you will become a better person, a better student, a better teacher, and just appreciate teachers more for what they do to us (the students) and our community. I for one should think that this author should get a noble prize.
