Why read it?
1 author picked Creative Schools as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Ken Robinson is one of the most inspirational people I have ever come across. His TED talks and books about teaching and schools are ground-breaking. He sees children as individuals with their own talents and interests, and he calls us to account to change schools so that they encourage all children to flourish.
His examples are quite wonderful; one story he tells is of a young girl mis-diagnosed with ADHD whose love of movement is nurtured and who becomes a famous ballerina. Wonderful stirring stories of amazing people, reading his books makes me want to change the world for children.
From Angela's list on The best books to remind you why working with young children is awesome.
