Opis

The Journey of a Thousand Miles The Journey of a Thousand Miles completes Guy's classroom anthologies, Tales of the Dolly Llama and More Tales. In The Journey, he continues his lifelong love affair with teaching and with students, now at Community College. With real warmth, humor, and candor Guy recounts the unusual sets of challenges these students face. He still clings to the belief that the roads to Heaven and Hell are both unpaved. Unmitigated praise for Tales of the Dolly Llama: "This is the best piece I've read on teaching in years. Not only does Guy nail issue after issue with laser-like precision, but he manages to afflict the comfortable and comfort the afflicted with humor and brief anecdotes, avoiding both the puffed-up prose and the grim earnestness of the wounded and the self-righteous. I really love it."-Bill Ayers, educator and social activist, author of To Teach, Fugitive Days, and others. "Guy Kuttner's eloquent writing engages your interest and touches your heart as he narrates his classroom experiences. He teaches by making his subjects meaningful and thus changes lives. Read this and have your own life changed a little, too."-Jim and Linda Sorter, life-long educators.
