This book tells about an exemplary high school Chinese language arts teacher's effort in nurturing lifelong readers and writers under the test-driven culture in China's society.

It looks closely at his everyday literacy practices, focuses on his ways of creating authentic reading and writing spaces for students beyond test preparation. With the lens of social constructivism, the case study reveals his efforts of creating safe learning environment, modeling his literate life, connecting real life with literacy learning, and building a school-wide literate life for students. Furthermore, he also collaborates with other Chinese language arts faculty and reaches out to school administrators and educators to gain any potential teaching resource for students. The findings indicate exemplary teachers are not only equipped with professional knowledge but also inter/intrapersonal knowledge and practical knowledge in their teaching career, which might be enlightening in today's high-stakes testing culture.

The book will appeal to scholars of literacy education and teacher education, as well as pre-service and in-service teachers.
