View from the Back Row

Beschreibung

"View from the Back Row" is a poignant and heartwarming novel that explores the overlooked lives of students with Individualized Education Plans (IEPs) in an elementary school classroom. At the back of the room, where the "slow" students are often sent, these children are forgotten by both their teachers and the administration, left to struggle in silence. But within this quiet corner, a miracle is about to unfold.

Autor

Andy Godby grew up in Earlham, Iowa on a century farm family. He has held many different careers as a farm mechanic, Chaplain for death row, Special Education teacher, and now a Commercial truck driver. He loves riding his motorcycle and once enjoyed skydiving. Andy Godby was chaplain at Sussex 1 State Prison in 1998 and 1999 where he witnessed a total of 27 executions. In 1997, he earned a master's degree from Southern Baptist Theological Seminary and gained his experience as a prison chaplain. At seminary the fundamentalist movement was coming on strong. Andy's long hair, Harley Davidson motorcycle and bold approach to life just did not blend with this movement. Behind the bars and razor wire of Luther Luckett and Sussex I prisons, he found friendship, men that he respected and learned about life from men who had theirs's taken from them. He also has two grown children, Amy and Joshua.
