Teachers and parents will enjoy "sitting in the classroom with Norma Salway." Salway tells tales from school-familiar to most veteran teachers. New teachers will enjoy and learn from the stories, parents will gain an understanding of their children's school experience and others will sense and appreciate the school atmosphere in the 21st century. Salway brings her three decades of teaching to her stories.
