More than one kind of bully... Prepare to share the accompanying emotions as you take this poignant journey with the members of a geography bee team and their teacher. As you read The Geography Bee, you will feel the anger of the bully, the pain of his victim, and the despair of their teacher as their education is threatened by a common enemy-THE TEST. Witness how an exceptional teacher introduces the words and deeds of our Nation's Founding Fathers, inspiring both herself and her students to emulate their courage in personal classroom conflicts. The children's road is wrought with obstacles, but with Jane Diskin's loving guidance, they travel from anger to kindness, pain to joy, instruction to independence, and, ultimately, from defeat to victory. This is a must-read for any parent or teacher eager to relive the joy of the classroom prior to the smothering imposition of THE TEST in our schools.
