"The Boy in the Sandbox" Kenjiro Haitani #KenjiroHaitani #Kenjiro_Haitani #Books #JapaneseLiterature/Novels&Stories #Bunko (Paperback) [Overview] Kuzuwarajun, who quit his job as a director at a broadcasting station, became a temporary junior high school teacher for the first time at the age of 35. The class he was in charge of was full of students who were not easy to handle, engaging in lively discussions. He immediately rejected the imposition of trite values and standardized lessons. The surrounding teachers kept repeating, "They're troublemakers, so you have to be strict..." Relying on his belief that he would never prejudge his students, Kuzuwarajun faced the students as they were. However, a boy who refused to go to school because he opposed having his head shaved, a girl who never spoke a word, and the existence of his wife, Touko, who was sinking into the darkness of neurosis, threw a big question at Kuzuwarajun. A moving novel that conveys the great possibilities of learning from children. Thank you for viewing. [Condition] This is a used item.
