Tribute

Marian Wright Edelman has written an instructional manual on how to build a nation for all children. Like all instructional manuals it is not exciting or entertaining. And it is expensive for it's intended audience;ie 19 pages for Parents. But Ms. Edelman cares enough to challenge me to get this manual out to her intendeds. So I bought four copies. As a tribute to a teacher friend that recently passed, I gave away each book asking each recipient to read and then pass the book onward. The voyage of Ms. Edelman's message has begun.
