Praise for Faculty Meeting at the Millhouse

“Reading Faculty Meeting at the Millhouse is akin to a delicious session of Friday night barroom eavesdropping, when you’ve hit the jackpot and the table next to you is the teaching staff of your local high school. Carla Beard’s long teaching experience is evident in these charming stories from someone who’s truly “been there.” This book contains all the tireless tenacity, tiny heartbreaks, soul-deep laughter, ferocious care, and unbreakable solidarity of being a classroom teacher.” —Amy E. Casey, author of The Sturgeon’s Heart

“A collection of charming short stories of life from a teacher’s perspective that promise to tickle your heart and touch your funny bone.” —Lynette Eklund, author of Weird, A Monster-maker’s Journey from Small Town to Hollywood With OCD
