The Real Hollywood Book Chat interviews author HBF author of No Teacher Left Behind


The Real Hollywood Book Chats interviews HBF Teacher about the novel No Teachers Left Behind. We give HBF a chance to pick the Hollywood actors who would play the lead role in the movie. HBF Teacher has been a public school Middle grades teacher for three years. Before that, HBF substitute taught for two years. HBF has also worked as a live-in nanny and an accounts payable representative. Today when not nurturing young minds, HBF enjoys travel, photography, culinary arts, and the cinema. The Cohen Brothers and Tyler Perry are among her favorite artistic contributors.

About the Book:
Explored through a series of poems, emails, and brief conversations, No Teachers Left Behind is a fictional yet realistic look at the frustrations of middle school staff.

Chipped paint, faulty wiring

and broken desks sit

in one tiny classroom.

Too many students.

Too few books.

Two job-carrying parents

of latch key kids who desire nothing

more than a free lunch.

They hate, without knowing,

the teachers who dare to care.
