My Sister Wrote A Book - and Now She's Trying Social Media

Sooo... My sister wrote a book... now she's trying to see what happens when people link to it (and her other research).
 
If you love education methodologies.... have a read!
 
 The book seeks to raise awareness on one of the most promising strategies for improving our nation’s public schools, and provides a roadmap for school systems that are seeking to invest in change.  If you, or anyone you know might be interested in learning more about how to ensure all children have better access to an excellent education, please click on the following link: http://www.hepg.org/hep/book/111/NewTeacherMentoring.  Or you can pre-order the book at: http://www.amazon.com/New-Teacher-Mentoring-Improving-Effectiveness/dp/1934742368
