name: escape from childhood
author: john holt
reading time: 4 metro rides
escape from childhood is a powerful book… talks about how children are treated and how it impinges on a lot of their rights… sort of hits you in the face… it is not anything new if you have already done a few courses in education… but it is still very real… so real that many wouldnt want to read it…
favourite quote: “escape from childhood”
final analysis: is very boring if you are not in the mood for something serious… but if you have an open and analytical mind… you should read it once…
