mandajo's review against another edition

emotional inspiring reflective slow-paced

4.0

I love the movie Freedom Writers and was interested in reading the real life stories of the students in Ms. Gruwell's class. This book tugged at the heartstrings while also providing smiles seeing how far they came and the history they were making. It was a very enjoyable book.
