Reviews
This collection of beginning teacher stories provides authentic narrative voices that share the positive, neutral, and negative realities of teaching. The vicarious experience serves as a means to help pre-service teachers envision their roles and the many choices, from overall career choices to the miniscule daily decisions, they will make as teachers... and to meet contemporary and future challenges as public intellectuals, advocates for their students and communities, and pedagogical leaders who can usher in a new progressive era of education. Lisa Schade Eckert, Northern Michigan University, USA. From the Foreword This is a gem of a book. It will stay on teachers' shelves long after they have emerged through their teacher preparation programs and first years of teaching as an invaluable resource for thinking about their lives as teachers, their teaching, and the students and issues that confront them. Melanie Sperling, University of California, Riverside, USA
