Every middle school teacher can relate to this. I couldn't put the book down.....passionate, yet humorous. I cried, I laughed out loud. Enjoyable!...
is is a tale of survival-of both students and teachers. It is a bittersweet account of a middle school teaching career which readers will find both humorous and touching (and, at times, infuriating). They will be transported back to those pubescent, and prepubescent, days of infatuation, torment, exhilaration, heartache, insecurity, disappointment, and just plain silly [read: bizarre] behavior. The story follows the adolescent years of Danny, a rough-around-the-edges seventh grader, who comes from a dysfunctional family and, serendipitously, ends up under the author's wing. This is a book about students, teachers, administrators, and parents; some crazy, some pathetic, some comical, some wonderful. It is a personal, realistic look at our public school system and those who suffer within its grasp.
