Review:This is one of those rare transformative reads. Thoroughly researched and beautifully written. Dissects the stages of racial identity development as well as those of white awakening. A must-read for every educator. Read more

Review:This book, Phonics Pathways started out with "acknowledgements". It then had a lengthy introduction. Then the reader journeys through "About Phonics Pathways". Then there was a discourse on "Getting Started". Then it had an article, "About Dewey". All of that before delivering anything informative about phonics. It did offer some good tools for teaching phonics after 12 pages of "stuff'. The tools it provided is the only reason my score for this book isn't lower. Read more

Review:The best books on the market. Literally. I practically bought every book on the market for my toddler and this is BY FAR the VERY BEST. I bought the level one pack and the level 2 already. I'll definitely get level 3. These books are the best, most interactive way to teach your child to read. I love the fact that they have just one or two lines of clear text per page to help children concentrate on the words. The size is perfect too. Big enough to read words clearly and small to stash into trave... Read more

Review:Terrible terrible book it makes no sense any of it even on a good day.!!! We were very disappointed. He was such a talented person that I would not expect him to have this type of book and it was a gift because it was for an adult so I figured it would be a little bit more racing but the things inside of it if you read it make no sense whatsoever. The only reason this has one star is because it will not let me put this on without putting something in the stars and it will not let me put just a... Read more

Review:I absolutely loved this book. I was actually pretty sad when I neared the end of it so soon. I took this book everywhere with me--to lunch, on the bus, everywhere. And where ever I was, I was laughing out loud. I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys teaching. I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys learning. I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys laughing, and appreciating the wonders that children provide.

When I read his book quoted in the last page of a magazine, I imm... Read more

Review:I was an award winning inner-city classroom teacher for 18 years and have been teaching preservice teachers at the college level for 17 years. Mr. Linsin was captured in words what I knew was the “formula” to be inspirational and happy. I loved my job and EVERY teacher needs to read this so they love their job. Today’s demands are out of control- he effectively brings it to the basics. Nice job! Outstanding book! Read more

Review:This guy inspires fifth grade kids from immigrant families to read and perform Shakespeare. He teaches self-respect by example and actually gets kids to think responsibly.
For him, teaching is a vocation, not a job. And his public school children learn through non-traditional but effective methods.
I borrowed this book from a friend who let me keep it after I raved about it. I just bought three more copies to give to teachers I know who could use a little hope. Read more
