Teaching with Fire is a glorious collection of the poetry that has restored the faith of teachers in the highest, most transcendent values of their work with children....Those who want us to believe that teaching is a technocratic and robotic skill devoid of art or joy or beauty need to read this powerful collection. So, for that matter, do we all. ?Jonathan Kozol, author of Amazing Grace and Savage InequalitiesWhen reasoned argument fails, poetry helps us make sense of life. A few well-chosen images, the spinning together of words creates a way of seeing where we came from and lights up possibilities for where we might be going....Dip in, read, and ponder share with others. It\'s inspiration in the very best sense. ?Deborah Meier, co-principal of The Mission Hill School, Boston and founder of a network of schools in East Harlem, New YorkIn the Confucian tradition it is said that the mark of a golden era is that children are the most important members of the society and teaching is the most revered profession. Our jour ney to that ideal may be a long one, but it is books like this that will sustain us - for who are we all at our best save teachers, and who matters more to us than the children? ?Peter M. Senge, founding chair, SoL (Society for Organizational Learning) and author of The Fifth DisciplineThose of us who care about the young and their education must find ways to remember what teaching and learning are really about. We must find ways to keep our hearts alive as we serve our students. Poetry has the power to keep us vital and focused on what really matters in life and in schooling.
