Media Reviews
The book's strongest feature is the set of strategies offered by Tileston to ensure the success of diverse learners. Her many years of experience working with schools gives her the background knowledge to know what works in the classroom for various environments. Teachers entering the teaching profession or teachers seeking an overview on diversity would benefit from this book. -- Childhood Education, Fall 2005
