Publisher's Synopsis
A USA analysis of federal crime reports identified more than 2,600 arrests in schools involving kids ages 5- 9 between 2000 and 2019. A young girl's sadness is criminalized when a school system views her as a threat and not as a student. In this instance, a moment of frustration becomes a life lesson on race, space, and power. How do we protect children from a society that doesn't see them as children?... A question that remains unanswered!
A Sad Day at School explores the ideas and importance of social and emotional development with self and others, & the joy of having a nurturing, and caring caretaker!
