Summary: Please read this book teachers!
Comment: This book ROCKS. I wish that all of my teachers would read it. High school kids are sick of being treated like second class citizens or caged animals and finally here we get some respect. Thank you Kathleen Cushman for listening to intelligent teenagers and getting their words into print.

Summary: I wish I had read this before my first year of teaching
Comment: This book was awesome! If I had read this before my first year of teaching, I would have been a much better teacher. I'm really glad I came across it in a bookstore and bought it on a whim as I entered my second year of teaching. It's a book that I know I will read again after a bad day to connected to my students' point of view. It's also a book that I plan to share with many of my colleagues. It really hepled me see things from a kids' perspective. I think it will change my teaching for the better.

Summary: Fires in the Bathroom
Comment: Research has shown a persistent divide among teachers and students across the country, and Fires in the Bathroom did a good job at specifically addressing how the students feel and are driven. It also provided, from the students perspectives, many solutions as to what would work for them. This made it particularly apparent however, the complexities that the teacher would presume to encounter in his or her role. The book in itself hopefully will have some positive effects on teenagers that educators are wanting to listen and learn what they are about. It is a book I would recommend to new and seasoned teachers both, to either become or reacquaint themselves with the diversity of students and how much of an impact a teacher can make in their lives.
