Thank you, teachers : true stories from America's teachers, our last line of defense and our first line of hope / James Patterson and Matt Eversmann with Chris Mooney.

Patterson, James, 1947- (author.). Eversmann, Matt, (author.). Mooney, Chris, (author.).

Summary:

"Teachers are the heroes we too often forget to thank. And we need heroes more than ever. From across the country, from kindergarten to high school, from public to private, religious, and military schools, teachers tell us: what it takes to teach kids daily, what it takes to improve kids' lives, what it takes to foster lifelong readers and lifelong learners. If you can read this, someone care about you. If you can read this, you want a brighter future for our kids. If you can read this, thank a teacher"-- Front jacket flap.
