Great Reading...

I just wanted to pass along the titles of two fabulous books I've read this month. "Nurtureshock" and "Pink Brain, Blue Brain" have both given me much insight as a teacher (and a parent, obviously!). The books have made me think about gender differences in the classroom, as well as puberty and development in general. I would highly recommend both books.
