	Be A Legacy Teacher Review this flyer for more information I wrote this book because I believe experienced educators have so much to offer our education profession and the world. I hope you will join me in sharing the message and giving the book to later career and retiring educators who still want to share their wisdom. Every once in a while a book is written that you didn’t know you needed to read. The reader gets a gift of possibilities with new ideas and new ways to explore them for his/her own growth.
