John Pearson (misterteacher) | 9 comments Hey, everyone. I'd like to introduce my humor novel, Learn Me Good to anyone looking for a few laughs. Amazon is currently running a special on the print edition that has it set at only $8.63!

Jack Woodson is currently living and working in Dallas, TX. He has forty children, and all of them have different mothers.

Mr. Woodson was a thermal design engineer for four years until he was laid off from his job. Now, as a teacher, he faces new challenges. Conference calls have been replaced with parent conferences. Product testing has given way to standardized testing. Instead of business cards, Jack now passes out report cards. The only thing that hasn't changed noticeably is the maturity level of the people surrounding him all day. Learn Me Good is a hilarious first-person account, inspired by real life experiences. Through a series of emails to Fred Bommerson, his buddy who still works at Heat Pumps Unlimited, Jack chronicles a year-in-the-life of a brand new teacher. With subject lines such as "Irritable Vowel Syndrome," "In math class, no one can hear you scream," and "I love the smell of Lysol in the morning," Jack writes each email with a dash of sarcasm and plenty of irreverent wit.
