I am always delighted to provide signed copies of any of my books, inscribed according to your instructions, as gifts to family, friends, or yourself. In their reviews, such illuminati as Sidney Sheldon and Robert Fulghum have penned warm words about my words about words.

New! A Tribute to Teacher: Wit and Wisdom, Information and Inspiration for Those Who Change Our Lives

Applauding the true heroes of the classroom, A Tribute to Teachers, by Dr. Richard Lederer, sings a chorus of praise for the teachers who change lives one day and one lesson at a time. The reader will meet the great teachers through history, as well as teachers in literature, film, and even in comic strips.

A Tribute to Teachers presents compelling statistics to prove that teachers really do make a difference. In addition, a collection of side-splitting jokes and puns from the English classroom to the Math classroom celebrate members of the most unheralded, exhausting, income-challenged, and ultimately rewarding of all professions. Chapters include “Why Teachers Matter,” “The Classroom Lives of Real Teachers,” “Students Say the Darnedest Things,” and “A Teacher’s Legacy.”

Signed and personally inscribed @ $13 trade paperback, plus postage.

New! The Gift of Age

"There is only one way to live a long life, and that is to age. And there is only one way to age–with a smile. If you are able to laugh at yourself, you’ll never cease to be amused. After all, you’re only old once."
--from the Introduction to The Gift of Age
