"SECRET SCHOOLS is about the power of education and how far some have had to go to offer it and to access it. This highly readable and inspiring book introduces middle-grade readers to 15 real-life examples of people and communities from all over the globe and at various times in history who established clandestine schools or education circles out of a thirst for knowledge, to ensure their basic rights, and to preserve the only world they've ever known. Includes endnotes and a selected bibliography."--
