Title: Where's My Book?
Review: I read this book about 3 years ago and I was taken in by Mr. Sykes fearless dissection of educratic logic. Well after 3 years of teaching in a fairly affluent school district I was wondering when we were going to get a sequel. What about the kids who get good grades, have supportive parents, read very well and 'don't feel good about themselves'? What about 8 and 9 year olds who suffer from sleepless nights and stress because of standardized test issues? This is typical narrow-minded, right-wing bellyaching that is about as objective as MSNBC and the Fox News Network. The current wave of accountability testing is already collapsing under the weight of its own disjointed logic. In years to come this book will be seen as evidence of a misguided attempt by freak reactionaries to uproot one of the only public insitutions worthy of its existence.
