Title: I guess there's a market for anything
Review: The fact that Esme has very creative ideas for the classroom is just great. However, the majority of pages in this book are devoted to her whining about the administrators, ranting about her colleagues and being alternately scared/disgusted/moved by her students. This is a journal by a young woman who, while very bright, seems to be incredibly vulgar and self-absorbed. She writes as if she is the only teacher on the face of the earth who ever had a creative thought. Since this is a journal and not a "how-to" book, it provides a glimpse into the thinking behind her actions. Not a pretty sight.
