I have this e-book! I actually got it to review, over on my blog, and I was pretty sure I DID (I remember writing about it-- sort of), but if I did, it has up and disappeareded.

It was good. I have an up-and-coming high-schooler so I was very much interested in it, although it did take me awhile to get through it (I didn't want to print it out, and reading off the computer screen for extended periods of time makes my eyes bug). There were LOTS of encouraging articles/ chapters-- one even made me cry-- but it is written from an American viewpoint. Being Canadian, we tend to just live with that...lol.... stands to reason that some chapters aren't all that relevant to us. Overall, though, it was a real interesting read. It also got me thinking about what constitutes a well-rounded, graduation-worthy high school education here in NB, which is leading to a fair bit of research and an upcoming article-sized post. There's a lot of information to wade through and things sure are more complicated than when I was in high school (after being utterly confused by the info on the NB Dept of Education website, I went over to my old high school's site and looked through their current handbook... HA! Confusing over in NS too.) Back off the wabbit-twail: the e-book gave me the nudge to check a few things out. It might for you too.
