    About this ebook

    The English Teacher peeks behind the curtain of the alchemy of parents, teachers, leaders and friends who indelibly imprint the hearts and souls of our children. The English Teacher, an old fashioned, made for family novel and film tells the story of how children learn and influence parents who influence teachers who make the spine and heart and soul of our country and culture.
