Captured in these pages are Morin’s journey as a Teacher and Special Educator. He began his career in 1970, finally drawing it to a close in 2014, a span of almost four and half decades! During that time he experienced many remarkable situations that caused him to reflect on the practice of educating individuals with unique needs. The book is NOT a how-to book but rather an immersion into the challenges of an educator trying to navigate the messy terrain of educating children who have a variety of disabilities, ensconced in community school settings. Morin lays the groundwork for his growth as it relates to his field, the maturation of his thoughts and actions, and the influlences that sustained him on his journey. Readers will encounter children they likely did not realize were present in community schools, yet they are, and they are there to be educated just as normal children are. It is through these children’s stories that he isolates some essential questions that confront educators as they grapple with the meaning of what an inclusive education is supposed to look like, not only for those children but, also for the others who function within the same environments.
