In No Child Left Behind? The True Story of a Teacher's Quest, Ms. Blake tells of her decision to leave a well-established career and take on an incredible challenge teaching in a school for at-risk students. She is appalled at the lack of support from some administrators, but encouraged by the shared commitment of other colleagues. She is moved by the needs of students headed toward failure, losing some but saving others. This is a compelling message about one woman's vision, that no child be left behind. --JoAnn V. Cleland, Ed.D. Professor Emeritus of Reading Education, Arizona State University at the West Campus
