The Pearls of Love and Logic for Parents and Teachers

The book presents practical solutions to common classroom problems. Perspectives in the book touch on social interactions between students and teachers, the psychology of power struggles, and standards of behavior. Many of the shared stories are common ground between the authors and the reader. This book serves the teacher well. With educators as the target readers, Fay and Funk's book encourages teachers to try the 'Love and Logic' approach. For the seasoned teachers who find that the passion of teaching has been eroded away by the ever-changing dynamics of student populations this book is a must. For aspiring educators, this book would serve as a fundamental tool to hold dear through decades to come. Fay and Funk's ideas are fundamental to teaching--changes in time, structure, and students do not alter the messages in this book. The book is a tool that in its first reading presents a fresh outlook for teaching. Consecutive readings hone the teachers' skills to establish the environment needed for educators to educate and students to learn.
