What Learning Leaves: New Edition - Taylor Mali

Called a ranting comic showman and a literary provocateur by The New York Times, Taylor Mali writes eloquently and entertainingly about his experiences in and out of the middle school classroom. Bob Holman, the man who brought the poetry slam to New York City, calls Mali's poems clear, funny, appealing, accessible. And smart.

What Learning Leaves includes many of Mali's greatest hits, including Like Lilly Like Wilson, Totally L Whatever, and What Teachers Make, which has been viewed on YouTube over five million times and is called the most forwarded poem in the world.
