Second Chance Kids

By Jody Primoff

This book tells of a novice teacher's first year with a classroom of children who have varying degrees of special needs. Told from the teacher's viewpoint, we get to know the children, as she does, by their words and actions, and we become, as the teacher does, enmeshed in their lives.Meet inscrutable Ahmed, hyperactive Oliver, angry Lainey, babyish Timmy, Susannah who talks constantly and Lisa who can hardly talk at all. And get to know as well other teachers, the director, and the daily life in this school devoted to giving children who have already struck out, a second chance in life. Much happens during the year, both to the children, and the teacher. The reader will find drama, humor, and emotional impact in these small lives, whose importance is not small at all.
