Robert John Meehan's insight into the hearts and souls of both teacher and students has earned him international recognition as 'The Voice Of the American Teacher'. Selections from The Teacher's Journey/The Road Less Traveled and The Teacher's Treasure/Bounty for All have appeared in countless magazines and educational journals worldwide. Robert John Meehan has long been one of the nation's most read and quoted education allies. Much has been said about the difficulties involved teaching in the inner-city schools, but little has been done to share the emotions of both teacher and student as Robert John Meehan has. He has done much in the area of encouraging others to share their feelings about what can and should be done in today's classrooms. His career has expanded over five decades. Robert John Meehan's gift of bringing the focus of the American public to a deeper understanding of both the rigors and compassion found in today's urban classrooms is unmatched among others in his profession.
Robert John Meehan's The Teacher's Journey/The Road Less Traveled along with The Teacher's Treasure/Bounty for All are available at most major bookstores or online book sellers. It has earned him much acclaim and popularity among educators and parents alike.

An inveigled law impossible to define
Or a ratiocination barring sensations sublime
Now be it a resolution
Benumbing meaningful hugs
...
Positive outlook initiative and effort
Progress and Friendship encouraging more effort
Expanding my interests building my skills
...
To the DIFFICULT ones
I'll be patient
To the PAINED ones
I'll be concerned
...
lest i be forgotten
(please notice me today)
forget that i was rotten
...
My pencil is on the floor
Just what am I to do
I'll not get it with my feet
As the other children do
