This book is the exemplifies the notion that small offhand comments can alter the course of someone’s life. It’s a must read for teachers and parents.
The author gained a rare inside look into classrooms by sitting in on classes. She saw first hand how teachers treat children. The book focuses on a handful of students as they progress from fourth grade to the pandemic. It details their personalities, their brilliance, and their social interactions. It also details comments made by teachers both to their faces and when they think nobody else is listening.
The book is well written. The narrator did a wonderful job. It’s well worth the read or listen.
