The most dynamic educational leaders today often are the teacher leaders working in classrooms. Throwing their classroom doors wide open to learners, peer colleagues, families, and community alike, today's teacher leaders are always on the lookout for ways to enhance their teaching practice - through the use of new technologies, through professional development, through discovering and sharing the talents of the people living in their surrounding communities.

Cuper recognize the unique ways in which teachers serve as leaders within their schools and communities. The 41 stories in this volume will prove inspirational to all readers.

"Three cheers for this wonderful book of stories from award winning teachers who are making a difference everyday in their classrooms around the country! These remarkable teacher leaders have much to share. Involving parents, building and implementing incredible learning projects, collaborating with colleagues, nurturing the gifts that each students brings, and above all, seeing the world through the eyes of a  child, will have you wishing the stories that illustrate their 'how-to' great adventures would never end. This important book recognizes and celebrates regular classroom teachers who are performing everyday miracles. We need to spread the word about our successes! What gifted teachers! What a great read!
"Knowledgeable advice in an engaging format. Personal essays shed light on topics important to all educators desiring to positively impact their professional communities."
