Another very good book from Mr. McCourt, I was really touched with the last few chapters of the book.

Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by Delfi
The art of teaching
I would have traveled to the States only and exclusively to talk to him personally. I'm studying to become a teacher.His voice would have sounded like angels singing from heaven to me! I will miss him!

Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by Jackson Rine
Great book
This book was amazing. I literally got through it in a week because it was page turning.

Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by Kathryn
A Different McCort!
Don't be put off reading McCort's Teacher Man because you didn't care for his other books. Although his melancholy nature comes through in the telling of his own teaching career, this book is an uplifting tale about what life in his classroom was like. Oh, if only all teachers could be so awesome! For me, it was one of those books I hated to see end. This McCort book has earned a permanent place on my book shelf.

Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by Kirconnell
A Teacher's Life
This is a wonderful book. It is warm, funny, sometimes in your face, and so beautiful honest. It is a glowing tribute to teachers everywhere and puts focus on a difficult job that often goes unappreciated. Read it. You won't be sorry.
