5.0 out of 5 stars
Fantastic, October 21, 2001

This review is from: Literacy Instruction in Multicultural Settings (HBJ Literacy Series) (Paperback)
This book gives voice to a viewpoint that is desperately missing in the dialogue of education and educational reform. Anyone who works within the institution of education needs to read this. It is insightful and as unbiased as a work can be when dealing with the topic of students from cultural and ethnic backgrounds that have been educationally, politically, and socially marginalized (oppressed) within American society. Those who find fault with it should take a more unbiased viewpoint of American history and politics.

One of a kind book, August 10, 2002

This review is from: Literacy Instruction in Multicultural Settings (HBJ Literacy Series) (Paperback)
This book is one-of-a-kind in its sensitivity to cultural difference, and it provides a solid explanation of sociocultural perspectives on literacy instruction. I don't know of other books of this kind out there that are even comparable!
