Editorial Review:

Product Description:
The New York Times bestseller that is revolutionizing the way Americans educate their kids—“Rafe Esquith is a genius and a saint” (The New York Times)

Perhaps the most famous fifth-grade teacher in America, Rafe Esquith has won numerous awards and even honorary citizenship in the British Empire for his outstandingly successful methods. In his Los Angeles public school classroom, he helps impoverished immigrant children understand Shakespeare, play Vivaldi, and become happy, self-confident people. This bestseller gives any teacher or parent all the techniques, exercises, and innovations that have made its author an educational icon, from personal codes of behavior to tips on tackling literature and algebra. The result is a powerful book for anyone concerned about the future of our children.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Wonderful Book But...
I think everyone - parents and teachers - should read this book for inspiration. I find some of the author's claims a little far fetched but the premise is valuable and well worth reading.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good Read
I admire the accomplishments of the author. As a fellow educator, I enjoy learning about teachers who teach "outside of the box". I recommend this book. I read another review that asked about a book that answered how the "average" teacher can inspire, etc. The book Edu-lution is a must for you.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Amazing book!
This is seriously one of the best books I've ever read. I bought a second one for my best friend as soon as I finished reading it the first time.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - I haven't received it yet
Although I'm aware of a recent strike on some brazilian postal services, I'm concerned about the delay on the delivery of the 2 books I bought through this site. I'd appreciate if you could give me some inoformation on when or how I could get them.
Thank you.
Vanessa
