I tend to enjoy most books I read (easily entertained, I guess), but don't let my low book standards detract from my statement that this is one of the best books I've ever read. While it appears to be a book on child-raising (and sort of is), I'd recommend it to anyone, parent or not. The author is clearly brilliant,...
Since this paper is known to have had great influence on the emergence of the classical schooling movement, I could not help but include it in my article Learning How to Think: A Reading List for Parents Considering Classical Education.”.

| Author | Rachel Jankovic |
| ISBN | 1947644475 |
If "Who am I?" is the question you're asking, Rachel Jankovic doesn't want you to "find yourself" or "follow your heart."
