185 Days: School Stories by Linda Ball

The door to Room 233 is open and you're invited in. Please observe a particular slice of public education in the U.S. It's one you won't hear about from most administrators, politicians, or the media, because most teachers (who are closest to the front) are seldom consulted on policy and reform.

185 Days: School Stories, through caricature, remains raw and realistic an insider's report of 185 days culled from thirty years of teaching. Had these days all happened in one year, no teacher could have survived. Woven together, they elicit sorrow and even outrage. But they offer hope and humor, too. And they reveal how very far we need to go to reach children, to nudge public education forward, and to even the playing field of public education's money and resources.
