Today I'm sharing the best book I read in March.
Of the 11 books I read this month, I had two 5-star reads:
How to Talk So Little Kids Will Listen by Joanna Faber and Julie King
Radical: Fighting to Put Students First by Michelle Rhee
The first was a reread and my Best of the Bunch for February 2017, so this time around my best read was...
I don't remember when I first heard about Michelle Rhee, but she's been a hero of mine for a long time. I'm sickened by the caricaturization and demonization of Rhee by people who make broad generalizations about her work. In addition to being a straight-shooting memoir, this book is a battle cry for parents, teachers, students, and politicians to use their voices to fight for every student to have a quality education. Even if you disagree with some of her methods, I can't imagine how you could disagree with her overall vision. This book is inspiring and motivating and a necessary read for anyone who cares about the quality of education in the United States.
