Following Alice: A Life in Teaching

Following Alice speaks to everyone whose dreams of teaching school collide with a much different reality. Using the adventures of Lewis Carroll's young Alice in Wonderland as a backdrop, Anne Koch explores the distance between formal training and true teaching. In a series of brief essays she traces the path from confusion to catastrophe to celebration as she learns. The book is a tribute to the skill of dedicated professionals in both parochial and public schools, who model the qualities that make a difference for everyone-the care, challenge, and community building that often are unappreciated but matter more than ever in the strangely disconnected-connected age in which we live.
