Among Schoolchildren by Tracy Kidder, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

Tracy 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 - sharings their joys, their catastrophes, and their small but essential triumphs. As a result, he has written a revealing, remarkably poignant account of education in America . . . and his most memorable, emotionally charged, and important book to date. | Among Schoolchildren by Tracy Kidder, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
