Texts:
1. The Hobart Shakespeareans, film by Mel Stuart
2. A Child Called "It", by Dave Pelzer
3. Imani All Mine, by Connie Rose Porter
The forward mentions that the diary entries are numbered to help promote the universality and anonymity of the experiences, but I would have preferred if the entries had been accompanied by names. I think it would have added concrete visualization and more personality to the story.
With this text and (as well as with Hobart Shakespeareans) there were other teachers who didn't support Ms. G. Why not? Were they more concerned at having the new teacher make them look bad or were they embarrassed that she had courage/talent to do what they couldn't do?
