Book Description
"Through portraits of the children in her classroom, Sentilles relates a heartbreaking journey, as she learns about a failing school system, the true meaning of poverty in America, and the strength children exhibit when they're just struggling to survive." "Sentilles originally went into Teach for America as a break between undergraduate and graduate school. She fully expected to go back to school for her doctorate in comparative literature after a two-year teaching stint. But teaching the children in Compton changed her utterly, and she decided during her tenure to study for the ministry instead."--Jacket.
