Show-and-Tell was \u003ci\u003ereal\u003c\/i\u003e in a way that much of what I learned in school was not. It was education that came out of my life experience. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAs a teacher, I was always surprised by what I learned from these amateur hours. A kid I was sure I knew well would reach down into a paper bag he carried and fish out some odd-shaped treasure and attach meaning to it beyond my most extravagant expectation. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAgain and again I learned that what I thought was only true for me . . . only valued by me . . . only cared about by me . . . was common property. The principles guiding this book are not far from the spirit of Show-and-Tell. It is stuff from home--that place in my mind and heart where I most truly live. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eP.S.
