Requests:  0 Summary:  "Denby sat in on a tenth-grade English class in a demanding New York public school for an entire academic year, and visited other schools. He read all the stories, poems, plays, and novels that the kids were reading, and creates an impassioned portrait of charismatic teachers at work, classroom dramas large and small, and fresh and inspiring encounters with the books themselves. Lit Up is a dramatic narrative that traces awkward and baffled beginnings but also exciting breakthroughs and the emergence of pleasure in reading. Denby reaffirms the power of great teachers and the importance and inspiration of great books."--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult Nonfiction 807.1273 De Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 807.1273 De Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 807.1273 De Checked In Add Copy to MyList
