Original publisher description

This is not a guest interview — it's my story. That kid in your class who learns differently and feels impossible to reach within the structures of how we do school? That kid could have been me. That kid who has side conversations all the time and doesn't follow directions? That kid could have been me, too. That kid who skips class and seems totally disinterested in your lessons — the one who's flunking out and doesn't seem like they'll ever amount to anything? That kid could have *definitely* been me.
