You're smart, successful, and happy, but did you ever ponder how you became who you are? Chances are, in addition to your own hard work and the encouragement of family and friends, you had another crucial element helping you out: teachers! In Teachers Touch Tomorrow, (Andrews McMeel Publishing, LLC, $9.95), editors Jane-Elyse Pryor and Todd Hafer have compiled reminiscences and celebrations of the teachers that have had a profound impact on our lives.

Things Teachers Need [That They Don't Sell in Teacher Supply Stores]

  • Patience
  • About twelve more hours in a day
  • Energy
  • Eyes not only in the back of their heads but in the back of the room, the ceiling, and the coat closet—for starters
  • A fairy godmother
  • A heat-seeking, supersonic, precision-guided baleful glare
  • A padded break room
  • Speaking of breaks, about ten more of them per day
  • And most of all . . . a giant-sized, heavy-duty, inexhaustible sense of humor!

Teachers Touch Tomorrow is an enthusiastic exaltation of the immense contribution teachers make to the world every day, offering stories from former students, tales of classroom adventures told by teachers themselves, and brief, witty observations about the demanding and rewarding life of a teacher. With vibrant pictures accompanying each account, Teachers Touch Tomorrow is both visually arresting and emotionally resonant.

Teachers change lives, by offering new perspectives, opening young eyes to the promise of the world, and inspiring hearts with enthusiasm and hope. Isn't it time for you to tell your teachers how much they've meant to you? This book provides the perfect opportunity.
