This book made me laugh and gain real insight into thinking skills. It brought back memories of Emile by Rousseau as learning is made meaningful and the author stimulates the reader with vivid stories. The fifth oak is very relevant for teachers and support staff who work with disaffected and disturbed learners. The emphasis is on a learning ethos which encourages learners to face up to things, to have a go and get rid of the I can t do it attitude so prevalent in many of our schools. An excellent, stimulating little book which packs a great punch and is a must for every school staffroom. Ian Gilbert, take that train journey again.

This book is the opera of the pantomime that education so often is. Like a good pantomime it appeals at many levels to all ages. Like a good opera it has guts and passion sung in wonderful harmonies. Buy it, read it and LEARN!
