Teachers Have 9 Lives: An Underground to Surface Exposure is a uniquely visionary book. While other books by educators focus on "super teachers" or how to be a better teacher, 9 Lives captures the intense battle taking place in our public schools for the future of America's children and the very existence of American society. With honesty and humor, author Hannah Hope brings the lessons she's learned from her more than twenty years teaching in inner-city schools to readers-parents, students, and anyone concerned about the current state of public education and interested in the behind-the-scenes plight of America's teachers and their far-reaching impact on American society.
