There are many reasons to become a substitute teacher. They include flexible regular work hours, no teaching experience necessary, relatively few non-work responsibilities, being influential to students, being able to do and have great practice for future teachers, and the ability to choose the age group of students to teach. Experiences may vary but what makes substitute teacher-author John Barr Jr. say "don't work for PESG or teach in Ypsilanti, Michigan"? Discover his untold stories of being a sub in his upcoming book, Confessions of a Substitute Teacher. Written with such fervor and vividness, this eye-opener chronicles Barr's unforgettable experiences from the good times to the bad: from receiving letters and cupcakes from several students to being assaulted by a fifth-grader. Having "subbed" for twelve years, Barr provides insightful ideas and suggestions that may prove relevant to teaching today's classrooms especially in schools where students are known to disrespect teachers. He also shares a little bit of history and how each school district compare and contrast. "I know I am taking a big risk by writing this book but it is a story that needs to be told, not just for me but for a lot of subs as well who are underpaid and under respected," Barr states.

In her debut work, Confessions of a Special Ed. Teacher, Susan Cramer tells of her feelings and experiences in her journey to teach these special children. Using a humorous style, Susan has created a book that will evoke in others a newfound hope, inspiration, and understanding of special needs children. Chapters in the book take the reader through the educational process of identifying children with emotional disabilities, creating an IEP, capturing and holding the attention of special needs children, making modifications and adaptations, and implementing behavioral strategies used in her classroom to attain academic and emotional success in the lives of her students. She sprinkles throughout the book controversial issues all too common in her profession: teacher burnout, overcrowded classrooms, budget shortfalls, ineffective administrators, pushy politicians, and absentee parents. She allows the reader to glimpse into her inner sanctum of the teacher's lounge and the antics that keep her of sane mind and body before and after school hours. Then she presents the reader with heart-wrenching stories about those special students who have touched her very soul. Through a combination of tough love, old-school tactics, compassion and humor the author is able to get the students to trust and open up to her in their quest to be successful for school. A "must read" for parents, educators, administrators and prospective collegiate education majors.

With clear vision this intimate memoir draws us into the intersections of everyday life and Communist power from the first days of "Liberation" in 1949 through the Tiananmen Square protests and after. The son of a professional family, Kang Zhengguo is a free spirit, drawn to literature. In Mao's China, these innocuous circumstances expose him at the age of twenty to a fierce struggle session, expulsion from university, and a four-year term of hard labor in Xian's Number Two Brickyard. So begins his long stay in the prison-camp system, a story of hardship and poignance, of warmth and humor in the face of cruelty. He finally escapes the Chinese gulag by forfeiting his identity: at age twenty-eight he is adopted by an aging bachelor in a peasant village, which enables him to start a new life. Rehabilitated after Mao's death, Kang finds himself still subject to the recurring nightmare of party authority.
