New Obsession..
So, I have a new obsession for the summer.
It's Dr. McCalley's sugested reading list.
Everything she says there is to know aobut special ed including Fritz Redl, who I am reading right now.
The agressive child otherwise known as children who hate.
A sad thing when you think about it. It is causing me to look at myself differently.
So, this list that Dr. Mac gave us I am searching high and low for every book on Amazon and the library. I thought that if I could not find the book on Amazon, perhaps I can find it via the library. Unfortuneately that is not true. Apparently the older a book is the more likely it is on Amazon for sale than in a library for lending... go figure.
I spent more $$ than I intended to do. Who knew that 5 books under $5 would rack up the shipping and handling fees to where they cost $35 as a grand total. Not so bad once a paycheck, but I did it twice and I still have to pay for the dzogchen retreat with Lama Lena that I seriously need to go to.
As I read Fritz, I anxiously await these beauties:
Oh the reading I will have this summer... oh the knowledge I will glean from these beauties, my beautiful beauties...
Now for the pool to open so I can sit pool side reading soaking up some vitamin D.
