Book Event: Cage-Busting Kindergarteners

4.1.2014

Join us Thursday afternoon for a lecture by Friend-of-Fordham Rick Hess about the latest book in his Cage-Busting series, Cage-Busting Kindergarteners. Following the success of Cage-Busting Parents, Cage-Busting Counselors, Cage-Busting Custodians, and Cage-Busting Coaches, Cage-Busting Kindergarteners urges kids to “refuse to accept the limitations of cages of your own design,” such as dress codes (“winter is a fine time for shorts!”), recess norms (“‘everyone’s a winner,’ my a$$”) and lunchroom etiquette (“don’t let the USDA put YOU on a diet!”). A panel, to be moderated by Mike’s son Nico, will follow the lecture. Register here.
