Alone Together out of the shadows The book started as a thought which over the course of a year, progressed quickly into a vision and has now become a reality. It is about our young people of today, who are our adults of tomorrow, coming “out of the shadows” and being vulnerable in expressing their raw true feelings in creative thoughts and writings. I was deeply touched and inspired by their courage to speak up about their pain and suffering. I hope that this will in turn give others that same inspiration, to be their own unique self, regardless of how they look, speak, act or dress and be accepted in society as an equal.

Chalk, Challenge and Change ISBN: 1-897144-98-9 Stories gathered from senior members of the Retired Women Teachers of Ontario capture the heritage and history of classrooms across the province from 1920 to 1979. Our storytellers are all over 90 years of age – some over 100, and their stories take us into the classrooms of the past. These as-told-by stories are about hiring and firing, struggles and celebrations, and the rewards of teaching under conditions that were often challenging. The ladies have shared their precious vintage photos that add another dimension to the book. In celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the RWTO, this book honours the teachers who have dedicated so many years of their lives to educating the young people of Ontario.
