Jackie Waldman the author of The Courage to Give and Teens with the Courage to Give now presents the stories of forty-two incredible teachers and the ways they went beyond the call of duty to make a difference in the lives of their students. In these inspiring pages you'll meet Trish Hill a teacher from Ft. Worth Texas who underwent radiation and chemotherapy without missing a day of school because her first graders gave her energy and courage; and Alison Frost a drama teacher in Houston who makes casting decisions knowing that the role may be better for the student than the student for the role. Then there's Francis Mustapha a teacher born in a small village in Africa who teaches in Fort Wayne Indiana and used a student's suicide to create an opportunity for other students to succeed. Through their courageous first-person stories these men and women prove that teachers are true everyday heroes. "Each of us remembers the teacher who made a difference in our life--that special person who has given us a glimpse of what we may accomplish or who we may become. By honoring teachers and learning their lessons we will co-create a safer kinder world." -Jackie Waldman
