It Took Hold

Sally Hobart Alexander touched the lives of twenty-four reluctant readers in a Connecticut high school English class. My class spent much of this spring exploring a variety of human challenges. Alexander's book was one of our sources, and the class was completely consumed by her story. The author drives home the idea that her loss of sight was the beginning of a powerful and personal journey that took her to the edge of human discovery. Never maudlin or self-indulgent, Alexander stares adversity square in its frightening face and wins! The book is a celebration of love and hope, and both students and teachers were inspired.
