Lauren Simms is left home alone. All seems normal until she is so depleted and bored she sleeps with the first willing victim, older man, Eric Young. Unfortunately for both, Eric happens to be Lauren's soon-to-be teacher.
Beginning with events that fired her passion on the bleak, mafia-controlled streets of post-communist Russia, Mission to Teach: The Life and Legacy of a Revolutionary Educator recounts the incredible journey of Dr. Jhumki Basu.
Mission to Teach chronicles the brutal murder of her dearest mentor and onset of breast cancer at age 24, to her founding of a public school in an embattled New York borough where she forged an inclusive teaching model that dramatically improved completion rates, to a unique professorship at New York University and untimely death and continuing legacy.
Narrated by Jhumki’s father, Dipak Basu, a writer and humanitarian, Mission to Teach is аbout:
• An enquiry into the public education system, especially as pertains to science
• A manifesto in favor of highly rational yet impassioned living
• The all-encompassing strength of family and friends and the investment in bonds that endure
• A breathless sense of the pace of one’s life; how it should be, how much one can do when fully alive, and how much one can leave behind
“I am among those who feel genuinely blessed to have known her.” - Dr. Condoleezza Rice, Former U.S. Secretary of State
“Brave and beautifully crafted, this riveting book … will leave you both mesmerized and inspired.” - John Moir, award-winning author of Return of the Condor

"Sassy and rough around the edges." A description of a feisty little girl who has every right to be. She hides behind her own protective barrier because that is the only way she knows how to survive.
It's not her fault though...is it? Her teacher doesn't think so and is determined to get past her flaws. He wants to help her but will he figure her out in time or will it be too late do anything? And if he does, can he handle more than one secret?
(Don't forget to add to your favorites :) Thanks.)
