摘要
This article explores the nature of stories appearing in supplementary reading books authored by teachers in South Africa. Teachers wrote about topics including the role of education in improving lives and the richness and diversity of South Africa. Themes included caring, responsibility, achieving goals, earned respect, traditional values and breaking gender barriers. As authors, teachers act to uphold the values and morals of a society and as change agents when provided with ample opportunities.
