WHAT'S WRONG WITH CHILDREN'S RIGHTS
GUGGENHEIM, MARTIN Bookseller: Strand Book Store, ABAA(New York, NY, U.S.A.) Book
Description: HARDCOVER HARVARD UNIVERSITY PRESS 2005. U 'Children's rights':
the phrase has been a legal battle cry for twenty-five years. But as this
provocative book by a nationally renowned expert on children's legal standing
argues, it is neither possible nor desirable to isolate childr
en from the interests of their parents, or those of society as a whole. From
foster care to adoption to visitation rights & beyond, the book offers a
trenchant analysis of the most significant debates in the children's rights
movement, particularly those that treat children's interests as antagonistic to
those of their parents.

Just Add One Chinese
Sister (ISBN:1563979896) McMahon, Patricia;
Jerome, Karen A. Bookseller: Eastwind Books of
Berkeley(Berkeley, CA, U.S.A.)Book
Description: Sherman, Connecticut, U.S.A.: Boyds Mills Pr, 2005. Hard Cover. As New/As New. School Library Journal PreS-Gr
4-This story of an American family's adoption of a Chinese toddler is
storytelling at its finest. The narration in two voices begins as the mother
shares a scrapbook she compiled with Claire. Big brother Conor
reveals his thoughts through journal entries printed in italics in the wide
right margins. The omnipresent dog is a humorous and appealing fourth presence.
The composition mimics a scrapbook, with multiple images on a page (sometimes
designed as photographs) and other travel paraphernalia, e.g., ticket stubs,
receipts, and postcards. Jerome's imaginative approach to color
and style attracts and sustains interest. A snowy scene in China is
impressionistic, bathed in purple. Family scenes are highly saturated with
vivid color blends and dramatic contrasts between
light and dark areas. The generous white space and lean text allow readers to
pace themselves through the moving emotional content. Author and artist are equally
adept at creating multidimensional portraits of the children. Conor is, by turn, curious (about how to become a brother),
worried, patient, frustrated, and annoyed, but ultimately elated. It is his
antics playing "Hotel Ball" with a sock that elicit his sister's
first laugh. Claire registers the anxiety of a toddler leaving familiar
territory, the giggly countenance of play, shyness in the face of the second
round of relatives, and naughtiness when she's comfortable in her new role. All
children will recognize and empathize with these delightful people.- [
Lies My Teacher Told Me: Everything
Your History Textbook Got Wrong (ISBN:156584100X)
Loewen, James W. Bookseller: Book Tree (Monaca, PA, U.S.A.) Book
Description: New Press, 2005. Softcover. VG. 9.5 x 6.4 x 1.4 inches. From Publishers Weekly Loewen's politically correct critique of 12 American history textbooks-including The American Pageant by Thomas
A. Bailey and David M. Kennedy; and Triumph of the American Nation by Paul
Lewis Todd and Merle Curti-is sure to please liberals
and infuriate conservatives. In condemning the way history is taught, he
indicts everyone involved in the enterprise: authors, publishers, adoption
committees, parents and teachers. Loewen (Mississippi: Conflict and
Change) argues that the bland, Eurocentric treatment of history bores most
elementary and high school students, who also find it irrelevant to their
lives. To make learning more compelling, Loewen urges
authors, publishers and teachers to highlight the drama inherent in history by
presenting students with different viewpoints and stressing that history is an
ongoing process, not merely a collection of-often misleading-factoids. Readers
interested in history, whether liberal or conservative, professional or layperson,
will find food for thought here. Illustrated.
Copyright 1994 Reed Business Information, Inc. From Booklist When textbook
gaffes make news, as with the tome that explained that the Korean War ended
when Truman dropped the atom bomb, the expeditious remedy would be to fire the
editor. Loewen would rather hire a new team of
authors bent on the pursuit of context instead of factoids. In Loewen's ideal text, events and people illuminating the
multicultural holy trinity of race, gender, and social class would predominate
over the fixation on heroes and acts of government. Such is the mood adopted
throughout this critique of 12 American history texts in current use. Vetting
10 topics they commonly address--from the Pilgrims to the Vietnam War--Loewen bewails a long train of alleged omissions and
distortions. To account for the deplorable situation, he offers this
quasi-Marxist explanation: "Perhaps we are all dupes, manipulated by elite
white male capitalists who orchestrate how history is written as part of their
scheme to perpetuate their own power and privilege at the expense of the rest
of us." Certainly students' appalling ignorance of history is troublesome,
and broken families and excessive TV viewing are at least the equals of white
male conspirators as the cause. However, libraries located where
dissatisfaction with textbooks exists should be interested in Loewen's critique. Gilbert Taylor.

Preface. 1. The nature and value of superintendence. 2. The superintendent's
powers defined and some of his general duties discussed. 3. The
superintendent's powers defined and some of his general duties discussed
(continued). 4. The superintendent's powers defined and some of his general

grading schools (concluded). 7. Reports records and blanks. 8. Examinations.
The great law of the division of labor has called
into existence a new class of professional men whose duty is the supervision of
schools and school systems yet up to this time no work not even the most
elementary has been published on an art whose importance can scarcely be over
estimated. The present work is offered as a contribution to the practical
literature of teaching. Its general scope and purpose are best explained by
remarking that it is a record of experience. The plans and suggestions which it
embodies were not inspired by mere theories of what ought to be or of what
might be but are the results which have been reached in the course of a
considerable experience in the management of schools. It is not meant by this
that all the plans herein contained are original on the contrary many of them
have come either by suggestion or adoption from the current practice in school
supervision.
