"Fletcher expertly balances a wide variety of
emotions...thoughtful, absorbing novel...a story that will linger
long after the book is closed." Booklist, ALA, Starred Review The
rich and complex emotional lives within a classroom of unsupervised
students boil toward eruption the day an exceptional teacher is
absent....Fletcher creates a testament to effective teaching in his
realistic portrait of Mr. Fabiano as both caring and intelligent. A
novel that is funny, real, and often moving.
