This is a book about hope. It affirms the power of personal and collective responsibility to enact heroic changes in our schools. Through a shared vision, purpose, and inquiry--and using the collective wisdom of myth, legend, and metaphor from around the world--we can find the inspiration and courage to face the challenges inherent in transforming schools into authentic learning organizations. As the heroes of legend leave the safety of their homes to face dragons and serpents in their quest for treasure and enlightenment, so do modern educators face new practices and confront the barriers to change in education. The authors show how heroic educators can triumph in their journey--and achieve excellence for students. Like both Arthurian and Jedi Knights, the Native American hero Black Elk, and Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz, heroic educators face six stages on their journey: * innocence lost; * chaos and complexity; * the heroic quest; * gurus and alliances; * trials, tests, and initiations; and * insight and transformation. Finally, the heroic educator returns "home" and begins the journey again, with a renewed vision and an enlarged heart, to create a caring community for learners of all ages.

Jim and Elizabeth Keys struggle for several years to have children, and then finally have one, but he is premature and has many health difficulties. The extra care and concern Jim feels his son needs eventually costs him his job. However, he is offered another job back in his home state. Not long after moving, his son is killed in a drive-by shooting. After the family recovers from the grief, they try again and lose the next child to miscarriage. Their physician finds out Elizabeth has a condition with her reproductive organs that he corrects which enables her to have a normal baby. This boy is small for his age and suffers a lot of ridicule until his size becomes an asset in rescuing a trapped dog. Meanwhile, Jim’s stepfather, who has been resistant to faith in Christ but more and more addicted to gambling, hits bottom and loses everything. It is then, through circumstances, he learns of another man who spent his life gambling but is now a changed man. He goes to hear the man speak and is convicted and becomes a Christian, the same night Jim’s little boy receives Christ.
