Scars Of Love - Tears Of Hope


Debbie Goforth has been living the mantra that "No Child Will Be Left Behind!", since long before it was ever used as a legislative title.

 

Her new book, Scars of Love - Tears of Hope, is available now at Atlas Books.

 

***********************************************************************

 

Debbie Goforth exemplifies hope, caring, and love.  This book speaks to her love of education and all children.  She captures the essence of good teaching through showing children that the old saying is so true, “kids don't care what you know until they know that you care.”

 

In so many cases, children have no one at home to love and care for them. This is a major part of the teacher’s job.  Children must feel loved and cared for before they can be successful in school.

 

Debbie’s examples in this book are so typical of all teachers and schools.  Every educator should read and live by these examples she shares here.

“Debbie Goforth has written a highly personal story about her life as a passionate educator.  She reminds us of the real reasons we went into education.  Her stories touch the heart as well as the brain.

  

At the end of her book, I was looking for more pages... More stories.  Maybe Ms. Goforth will write another book.”
