Written in a tradition that encourages teachers to see classrooms as laboratories and themselves as artists, intellectuals and researchers, Teaching Writing While Standing on One Foot is a compelling work that will enthrall readers as well as give them knowledge, hope, and inspiration. Written from the perspective of a writer, teacher, father, home cook and learner growing up with a learning disability, Teaching Writing While Standing on One Foot combines essays, poems, recipes, legends, teaching tips and stories to explore the question “How do we teach what we can only learn for ourselves?” Prompts woven throughout the book invite readers to write the stories of their own lives.
