It tells you about a disheartened, messed up teacher with a scandalous past meeting screwed up group of eighth graders who were told they were failures called, The Unteachables. It's Hari Anak Nasional or National Children's Day in my country here in Indonesia, and I feel like I'm celebrating it with just the right book. I've been in a very bad condition for the past few days, mostly because of PMS, and this book has been staying at the very end of my Kindle library, and oh my, thank you universe, and silly finger for casually tapping this book! And I'm just gonna end with that, before I start sounding too much like a grizzled old baseball coach. And they pull through, because they've got heart. They fall in love, they make mistakes, they get in trouble and get others in trouble. It's a story, like all Korman's stories, full of humor and compassion for his delightfully human characters. The Unteachables isn't just about kids who have been written off for various reasons (you know, like anger issues, struggling to read, or being in the wrong place at the wrong time), but it's also about a teacher who got written off and, seeing the futility of it all, went along with the public opinion that he was a bad teacher.
