## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent book, super inspiring
*by C***I on July 26, 2025*

Every person working in education and those who aspire to be an American educator should absolutely read this book. I'm so glad we purchased and read this book!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Powerful and Inspiring...
*by L***T on March 15, 2007*

This book, I believe, is a must-read for all teachers. It demonstrates the powerful and far-reaching influence of a teacher who made it her primary aim to nurture her students' ethical ideal and passionately dedicated herself to this aim. Our educational system has much to learn from Erin Gruwell and her students. If you are an educator, I highly recommend that you read this book. It will give you hope and inspire you to be a better teacher and human being.I would like to respond to the two previous reviewers'critiques of Erin and her book.First of all, studies have indicated that students do better when they stay with each other and with the same teacher (assuming the teacher is a caring one) for an extended period of time, the longer the better. Erin and her students must have recognized this truth and her example proved this hypothesis quite well. Secondly, so what if Erin only taught for four or five years? I speculate that the difference she made in the lives of her 150 students in those four years is more significant and lasting than the contribution some teachers make to their students in a 20 or 30-year long career. Erin is serving our society and our students on a larger scale by speaking and providing training to teachers on a methodology that yielded astounding success. I don't think she left teaching because she was "burned out". She was smart enough to know that she could serve the world more effectively in a different capacity.And this one is to the reviewer who called Erin's book "self-serving and trite". Like you, I am sure all of us--as teachers--have spent our own money on our students and felt that every dime has been worthwhile. However, I don't know how many of us has actually worked a second or third job like Erin to cover our students' expenses. Erin is SELFLESS and anything but "self-serving". I am saddened that this extraordinary teacher has been so harshly criticized for what I consider an extraordinary act of love.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wonderful read
*by B***R on December 18, 2023*

I loved this story very much. It captivated my interest and I had difficulty putting it down. I wanted to see what else this teacher could do. Amazing! It is a feel good book- some things in life do turn out right
