Summary: Title can be deceiving
Comment: To be 100% honest, as of this writing I have not finished this book, but I was put off by the fact that this book is actually based on "The Boys Town" methods. I am sure some advice will be helpful, but I think they need to state that somewhere. I know I was shocked when I opened my package! Also so far they are always referring to Boys Town and not how to use this practically in our classrooms.
