The Call of Stories: Teaching and the Moral… por Robert Coles

This is a compendium of essays that Robert Coles wrote while and after teaching at Harvard. He is both a child psychiatrist and a professor of Social Ethics, and in this latter role he has had many discussions with college students regarding their reading and its impact on their own ethical thought. It illustrates how reading the classics can influence people's thinking about themselves, their families, the decisions they may have to make, their opinions of others - in short, the lessons fiction can impart to us all. Lovely writing and thoughtfulness.

I've been reading this for quite a while, an essay here and there as I go. It is one of those books that bears rereading, as much as the classic texts it cites.… (mais)

The Story of Ruby Bridges por Robert Coles

This story shows the reality of racism and segregation in America and how such a little girl helped change that by being the first black child to desegregate an all white elementary school.

The Story of Ruby Bridges por Robert Coles

The story takes places during the 1950's in New Orleans during segregation where 6-year-old Ruby was instructed to attend an all-White elementary school. Many people opposed this decision and removed their children from class and protested the girl attending the school for months. This never distracted the girl from receiving her education, she just prayed for them.
