Book Reviews of What Learning Leaves
Book Review: Great read, inspirational.
Summary: 5 Stars
I am just a few months from graduating college and becoming a teacher. I am teacher #523 on Taylor Mali's list of 1000 teachers. If you don't know what that is you should check out his website and see what he is about, but since your here, I know you've at least heard of him or you've seen a video on you tube.
This book is a compilation of some of Taylor poems that are majorly based towards teachers. Its got most of his best ones including 'What teachers make', 'Like Lilly Like Wilson', 'Like you know...', 'the impotence of proofreading', and lots of others.
Its a short book, and you don't have to even LIKE poetry to read this and enjoy it. In fact, if you read this and don't feel inspired, then I would think there is something wrong with you.
I would recommend this to people who want to be teachers, and people who are teachers. It will most assuredly inspire you to teach even if you're not teaching professionally, and for those who are and have been teachers it will bring back some great memories. It may even rekindle the flame of a teacher who has forgotten why they started teaching in the first place. As teachers we all need a little boost once in awhile. This would be great to have in the desk and take out on those rough days and remind you who you are.
