Spreyer's experiences with students and colleagues form the core of the book. It includes humor, quotations, poetry, samples, and examples for practitioners to try within their classrooms. -- Harriett Arnold [It] is a practical and informative guide which is accessibly arranged ... a very highly recommended supplemental resource for art educators of all experience, skill, and grade levels. -- Midwest Book Review's Library Bookwatch, March 2003 I re-read this book every summer to help me maintain a balanced perspective as I plan for a new school year. -- Gary Tsuruda, Math teacher Teaching Is an Art can help new teachers adjust more smoothly into the education profession and can provide new ideas and insights for veteran teachers. -- John Thompson, Assistant Principal Where was this book when I was teaching? I'm going to show or tell every teacher I know about this book. I wish Leon Spreyer could win teacher of the millennium award (and I mean this new millennium not the last one)! -- Barbara Piano
