I had a surprise on Thanksgiving weekend. The e-book version of "Saving K-12" reached #5, for a few days, on Amazon in its education category.

It's only $3, that may explain the jump. The paperback is $20. There's also a hardcover.

The full title tells you the book's purpose: "Saving K-12 – What happened to our public schools? How do we fix them?”

My theme is that we can't have much education reform unless the public is more aware of what games the Education Establishment is playing.

For testimonials about the writer and info about the book, please see: www.Lit4u.com/saving-k-12/

PS: one of my topics that some people might find controversial (and have on this site) is my many attacks on sight-words plus an aggressive defense of phonics. In a remarkable turn around, the New York Times now agrees with me, as I like to put it. They ran a long article in October saying that children must have phonics!

Do you have ordering information? I’d like to send a copy to Rep. Ocasio-Cortez.

we are overdue for serious K-12 reforms. Start by moving to choice, end the union stranglehold, pay teachers based on merit.

I thought it was going to be about a cleanup project on a mountain a few miles over from K2.

No point in sending her a book; she can’t read.
