Descriere Among Schoolchildren - Tracy Kidder

Brimming with the exuberance and innocence of childhood, Among School Children is the intense and affecting chronicle of a Holyoke, Massachusetts, fifth-grade teacher's passionate dedication to the children in her classroom.#Houghton Mifflin. \n \nNATIONAL BESTSELLER\n \nAmong School Children is more than a book about needy children and a valiant teacher; it is full of the author's genuine love, delight and celebration of the human condition. --New York Times Book Review\n \nTracy Kidder--the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Soul of a New Machine and the extraordinary national bestseller House--spent nine months in Mrs. Zajac's fifth-grade classroom in the depressed Flats of Holyoke, Massachusetts. For an entire year he lived among twenty schoolchildren and their indomitable, compassionate teacher--sharing their joys, their catastrophes, and their small but essential triumphs. \n \nAs a result, he has written a revealing, remarkably poignant account of education in America.\n
