More Absurdities and Realities of Special Education
Formerly published by Peytral Publications "Wonderful, powerful, provocative! Flying by the Seat of You Pants causes us to laugh at ourselves and consciously reflect on how to make more appropriate and family-centered decisions. These cartoons are truly a great inservice tool!" -Richard A. Villa, President Bayridge Consortium, Inc. Author, A Guide to Co-Teaching "I cannot imagine anyone in our field reading this book and not chuckling at the hidden truths playfully captured by these cartoons. Giangreco's message, delivered gently with humor and wit, is that we must not let any more time pass before addressing the absurdities that continue to devalue people with disabilities." -Michael L. Wehmeyer, Director Kansas University Center on Developmental Disabilities Author, Self-Determination "Flying by the Seat of Your Pants teaches about the nuances of inclusive education by showing the absurdities of bad practice and some very heartwarming positive examples as well. A great icebreaker at presentations. It is a wonderful coffee table book, sure to bring out some good chuckles at the brilliant observations of our valiant, yet often imperfect attempts to improve the lives of individuals with disabilities." -Jacqueline S. Thousand, Professor of Education California State University, San Marcos Author, Differentiating Instruction
Formerly published by Peytral Publications "The cartoons are great! Michael Giangreco has done it again with his third book of right-on-target cartoons that make their points better and faster than most lectures." -Irene R. McEwen, Professor University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center "Insightful and provocative humor! The cartoons spark smiles and a bit of reflection. Used in workshops and seminars, they initiate laughter. But more important, they prompt conversation." -Jane Goldoski, Staff Development Specialist Milwaukee Public Schools, WI "Michael makes me laugh. We need more laughter in the world. As important, Michael makes me think. We need more of that too. Tilting the horizon, this book clears the mind, providing space for better thinking. Thinking, especially creative thinking, most often begets effective change and, in education today, isn't that what children-all children-deserve more than anything?" -Dan Wilkins, Proprietor Nth Degree
