Letters to a Young Teacher

Somewhat less polemical (at least in parts) than some of his other writings on schools and schooling, Jonathan Kozol's LETTERS TO A YOUNG TEACHER is an open and honest dialogue between Kozol, who has four decades' experience in education, and Francesca, a first-year teacher. Kozol walks a fine line between wanting to prepare Francesca for the sometimes harsh realities of school systems and opening her eyes to the rewards that come from a good day in the classroom. Along the way he shares many anecdotes about teachers and students he has observed, imparting a passion for education as he responds to her probing questions about the career that lies ahead.
