He eventually added Saturday classes from 9-2 and right before the end of June he mentioned "he was thinking about Sunday's" oh I forgot to mention they attend classes in the summer.. "Can you say over kill" I sent him my copy of "A Fine, Fine School" and told my daughter to tell him he reminds me of the principal in the book.. He called me while at work, I thought it was something about my daughter so I excused myself to take the call to find out he thanked me for the book and said, he loved it and he was keeping it.. I had no choice but to laugh and say "you are welcome".. I came to the realization that if my daughter is happy with it so am I.. She is now in the 11th grade with with 10 college credits and she is taking 3 college courses this fall with 3 HS classes, she is dedicated and vet determine.. Forgot to mention it is the new HS in Brooklyn, NY "Pathways in Technology Early College HS" I believe the book is great for all ages, who said a children's book is only for children? I read what excites me and sometimes I find myself reading a children's book and reflecting on it.. I replaced my copy never getting rid of it and hope to see some similar books like it soon.. THANK YOU FOR A GREAT BOOK!Evans DChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01423996714185196116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1684275145213911250.post-87912934241853922332013-08-10T18:49:59.259-07:002013-08-10T18:49:59.259-07:00Love this!
