(This non-fictional account of Tony Petri, learning disabl...)
This non-fictional account of Tony Petri, learning disabled but gifted teenager, is written in compelling docudrama form to help the reader understand: *the controlled rage that is a hidden byproduct of school failure; *the frustration of the help-seeking process; *the powerlessness of everyone involved in that process--students, families, teachers, and helping professionals; *the ultimate hope for reversal of both the failure and the rage. By reconstructing Tony's life and each affront to his sensitivies and self-worth, we see another kind of failure--not of the boy but of the school and professional systems--failure to listen to what was really happening for Tony, and failure to really communicate with each other.
