"Shannon Reed didn't want to be a teacher, but now there's nothing she would rather be. In essays full of wit and insight, she relates the highs and lows of a job located at the intersection of youth and wisdom, rolling her eyes at ineffectual administrators, weeping with her students as they experience personal tragedies, explaining the unwritten rules of the faculty lounge, and presenting the parent-teacher conference from the other side of the tiny table. Why Did I Get a B? is full of as much humor and heart as the job itself." --Back cover.
