Book excerpt: #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A special 25th anniversary edition of the beloved book that has changed millions of lives with the story of an unforgettable friendship, the timeless wisdom of older generations, and healing lessons on loss and grief—featuring a new afterword by the author “A wonderful book, a story of the heart told by a writer with soul.”—Los Angeles Times “The most important thing in life is to learn how to give out love, and to let it come in.” Maybe it was a grandparent, or a teacher, or a colleague. Someone older, patient and wise, who understood you when you were young and searching, helped you see the world as a more profound place, gave you sound advice to help you make your way through it. For Mitch Albom, that person was his college professor Morrie Schwartz. Maybe, like Mitch, you lost track of this mentor as you made your way, and the insights faded, and the world seemed colder. Wouldn’t you like to see that person again, ask the bigger questions that still haunt you, receive wisdom for your busy life today the way you once did when you were younger? Mitch Albom had that second chance. He rediscovered Morrie in the last months of the older man’s life. Knowing he was dying, Morrie visited with Mitch in his study every Tuesday, just as they used to back in college. Their rekindled relationship turned into one final “class”: lessons in how to live. “The truth is, Mitch,” he said, “once you learn how to die, you learn how to live.” Tuesdays with Morrie is a magical chronicle of their time together, through which Mitch shares Morrie’s lasting gift with the world.

Book excerpt: "I have always been drawn to darkness," Elaine Leeder writes. "I know I always championed the underdog." That path has led her through many years of teaching prisoners and now to San Quentin in California and her current role as a leader of the inmates' own group, New Leaf on Life. There, although many of the "lifers" she teaches have served twenty to thirty years and are eligible for parole, they never see that opportunity because of the popular view that they are all "hardened criminals," killers incapable of rehabilitation and unfit to be free. What Leeder has learned, however, is that incarceration does not dictate character. Her students, although they are convicts, are committed to making their time in jail a life sentence in the best sense, not a death sentence. They have gone the extra mile to come to terms with their crimes, and have often managed to redeem their lives. My Life With Lifers shares the journey of a woman "on the outside" as she discovered the true nature of life in prison, and the roadblocks -- so many unneeded -- on the inmates' path to freedom. What Leeder's experiences add up to is both a fascinating human story and a reasoned and impassioned case for prison reform.

Book excerpt: From the Disney Teacher of the Year and New York Times bestselling author Ron Clark comes the classic guide to bringing out the best in your students, revised and updated for today's teachers. Over 1 million copies sold! When Ron Clark walked into his fifth-grade class in rural North Carolina, he was confronted with disinterested children in desperate need of structure and compassion. Brainstorming how best to reignite their love of learning, Ron created 55 lessons. Soon his fifth graders were reading at a sixth-grade level, engaging in class, and loving school. What's more, they were gaining something crucial: self-respect. These lessons evolved into The Essential 55--guidelines for students on how to live and interact with others. Ron lit a fire under parents and teachers around the world to raise their standards and expect the most from their students. The Essential 55 features a new foreword from Ron and a fresh take on his classic rules, along with contributions from Ron's former students, who reflect on which rules resonated most. Ron's 55 ideas show that with determination, discipline, and regular rewards, the children you stick by will be the children you eventually admire.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My life, lessons, and teacher within, provide insights and subtlety of life in simple but captivative English. The book is stimulating and inspirational. It is unique in many different aspects. The author describes the historical incidences that impacted the communities and nations. The lives and struggles of ordinary people living in four countries, India, Zimbabwe, England, and Canada, are portrayed as witnessed by the author. Forever bleeding wounds of history, a partition of Punjab, struggles of the blacks of Africa and aboriginals of Canada captivates the reader to feel their pain. This book is the testimony of an immigrant, a man of colour within a layered society, divided within shades of colour, creed, and religion. The lessons learned in politics, business, family, culture, and professional are stated in the simplest way possible. Some chapters of the book provide knowledgeable insights into India, England, Zimbabwe, and Canada. The book prescribes the desirable criteria for a successful life, good health, shelter or roof over the head, enough money to live, a caring family, and a respectful place in society.

Book excerpt: What can a 1980s elementary school custodian teach us about life in a pandemic / post-pandemic world? A lot, actually... Growing up is a challenge! Especially for an effervescent, full of life, live for the moment curly-haired boy who wants to soak up everything life offers-but whose teachers have other priorities. Hi, I'm Chris Forman. Four decades later, the words above still describe me (minus the hair). I admit, I was a handful. Usually mischievous. Occasionally charming. And nearly always misunderstood. With dozens of adults working at my elementary school, only one understood me. Mr. Clifferd, the school custodian. I often visited his office (the boiler room). He always knew just what to say and how to lift me up. Mr. C.'s lessons shaped my life. Today, we find ourselves in a chaotic world. Social ills run rampant. Climate change threatens our survival. A global pandemic shook the world. And yet the quiet wisdom of a long-retired custodian echoes across the decades with profundity. His message remains more relevant today than ever before. Join me for a joyful journey through my childhood. You'll meet some mean teachers and a bunch of my crazy (and oddly named) classmates. Best of all, you'll meet the amazing Mr. C. and learn from this common man's uncommon wisdom. We'll share a few tears. And have lots of laughs. (Take it from a kid whose antics earned him a permanent home in the principal's office). I can't wait for you to meet Mr. C. You're going to love him. And he just might change your life, too.

Book excerpt: "...an eloquent love letter to teaching and to life, written by a veteran teacher at the height of his powers." - Sam Swope, Founder of The Academy for Teachers "I admired its feeling, candor, and exuberance - and of course its Emersonian hope." - Mark Edmundson, author of Teacher: The One Who Made the Difference "Shy abounds in wry observations about practical experiences; his quiet reflections verge on and flow into wisdom ..." - Bob Blaisdell, author of Tolstoy as Teacher: Leo Tolstoy's Writings on Education Great teachers are indispensable champions and guides for students passing through crucial years. They are forks in the road. They are artists with living canvases and hidden audiences. The essence of what teachers do when the classroom door is closed is not written about, or celebrated, enough. It is unsung work. Teaching Life sings it here. One part memoir and one part educator travel guide, Teaching Life is a charming and loving missive to the author's aspiring-teacher daughters and a lyrical celebration of the unsung work of teaching. This book will surely shine as a North Star for teachers the world over.

It wasn’t long after being named North Carolina History Teacher of the year that Justin Ashley started noticing signs of burnout. He knew he needed to make some radical changes in how he handled his work and personal life. In The Balanced Teacher Path, Justin shares his personal story—illuminating how easy it is to give your job everything you’ve got and leave yourself with nothing outside of school—and shows new teachers and veterans alike the self-care techniques they can employ to create work-life balance and prevent burnout. With equal parts humor and wisdom, Justin analyzes four key aspects of every teacher’s life—career, social, physical, and financial—and offers practical advice to bring these areas into sync, reigniting a passion for teaching in the process.

Full of honesty, humor, heartbreak, and humanity, Kim's experiences show how children can help any one of us, despite life's obstacles, find the joy and significance in both our personal and professional lives"--

Book excerpt: Sharing the stories of educators working in a diverse range of international contexts, Being a Teacher uses personal narratives to explore effective teaching and learning in global settings. Demonstrating how personal values influence pedagogical practice, and asking how practice can be improved, authors reflect on their experiences not just as teachers, but also as learners, to offer essential guidance for all prospective educational professionals. The book focuses on teacher narratives as a vehicle for consideration of teacher professionalism, and as a way of understanding issues which are important to teachers in different contexts. By sharing and analysing these narratives, the book discusses the increasing complexity of teaching as a profession, and considers the commonality within the narratives. Each chapter includes graphic representations of analysis and encourages its reader to reflect critically on central questions, thereby constructing their own narrative. Being a Teacher provides an in-depth and engaging insight into the education system at a global level, making it an essential read for anyone embarking on a teaching career within the international education market.
