The story of John B. King, Jr’s inspiring path to President Obama’s Cabinet begins the day that his mother died. He insisted on going to school that day, knowing he would find comfort in his classroom. As he navigated living alone with a father dying from undiagnosed Alzheimer's, it was public school teachers who saved his life. King’s teachers believed in him and saw his potential. They made school a safe, supportive, and engaging place where King could be a kid despite the challenges at home.

In Show, Don't Tell, Kristine Gasbarre shares the wisdom she gleaned from the teacher who shaped her own life so significantly--from her career to her relationships to her thoughts on the meaning of life. It shines a spotlight on the power of sharing our lives and our stories with each other as it moves listeners with tragedy, awe, and the heartwarming relationship forged over three decades between two women from different generations.

He seemed interested in everything; no detail was too trivial, no subject tedious; they were all “fascinating”. His main field of study was Victorian history, a field which he helped to establish and cultivate. This is his life story, told for the first time.

Meine Lieben, das Buch, das ich euch vorlese, wurde vor etwa sechzehn Jahren unter dem Titel Doppel-Ich veröffentlicht. Es war eine Auftragsarbeit für das Gütersloher Verlagshaus. Der Verlag war durch meine Talkshow "Guildo und seine Gäste" auf mein zerklüftetes Treiben im pädagogischen Kontext aufmerksam geworden. Bestellt wurde ein Buch über meinen Ansatz zum Thema Inklusion. Ich habe das Ganze dann in einen autobiografischen Roman gepackt und bin dafür in Bereiche meiner Vergangenheit vorgedrungen, die mich zum Teil vor mir selbst erschaudern ließen.
