Along the way, the author will keep you entertained with anecdotes of children from varied cultures and different eras. Some stories will have you laughing , while others will bring tears to your eyes. It is obvious that society has changed in many ways during this time frame and definitely is reflected in the classroom, but the fact that the writer hopes to instill in this book, is that children
are basically the same. They react in like manner to most situations, but there is one huge difference in the students of today and the kids of earlier decades. Technology has changed the way that teachers teach, and the way that students learn. The students in this book had not been introduced to computers, cell phones, Ipads or other technological tools that are taken for granted in the classrooms of today. Throughout this book, it becomes evident that the writer enjoyed her profession and cared deeply for her students.view less
