Paperback. Condition: Very Good. When rookie teacher Todd Hunter greets his first class of ninth graders, he sees in half their faces bedtime stories and good-night kisses, piano lessons and 4-H clubs.

This is where I'll cut my teeth; this is where I'll learn the difference between teaching and blabbing. This is where I'll learn about inspiration, motivation, leadership, and vision. And this is where I'll learn that to teach is first and foremost to love.…
