pickMuch of the reporting in this book has been done before. It is not a revelation that early childhood intervention, drug diversion programs, job/financial literacy training, and after school programs help kids, families, and adults.
However, until we make fundamental, bipartisan structural change to make these and other programs available to all Americans, we need to keep this in the public eye.
A well written, if a bit imperfect book. 4⭐️ #BOTM

Reviewsbylola Lolol idk what third book you chose for #botm, but this had to be better than Topics. 🤣🤣🤣 5y
Megabooks @Reviewsbylola yeah, I though this month was going to be awesome. Spoiler alert: it wasn‘t! I also got this, which was a so-so. I should‘ve gone with the St. James!![[tagged book]](https://image.librarything.com/pics/litsy_webpics/icon_taggedBook@3x.png)

When We Were VikingsReviewsbylola @BarbaraTheBibliophage @Cinfhen I think I‘m going to start this one now if you are both up for a buddy read! 5y
Cinfhen I STILL don‘t have my copy @Reviewsbylola 😬😬😬and now that the whole world has shut down I may not be able to read this until 2021 😫 5y
Reviewsbylola Damn!! @Cinfhen 5y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @Reviewsbylola I don‘t think I can swing it this month. I‘m reading a bunch of other heavy books for buddy reads, and this might put me over the edge into 😭. I‘d say you should go ahead if you feel like it‘s time ... 💕 5y
Reviewsbylola I‘ve only read the first few pages but it seems good so far! I‘ll keep you posted! @BarbaraTheBibliophage @Cinfhen 5y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @Reviewsbylola Please do! 5y
Megabooks @Reviewsbylola I‘m curious about your thoughts too. 5y
