The Other Wes Moore

The Other Wes Moore

by: Wes Moore

This book gave me the creeps. It was published in 2010, but the content is so relevant to the cultural conversations of today. It is presented in as unbiased a view as possible. To me it was a clear example of the value of parenting. That was the only thing that really stuck out to me in how their paths began to diverge. I think this book is an excellent adult read. I wish I had other people to talk to this book about. It's one I keep bringing up in conversation, especially with fellow teachers. The author Wes Moore comments many times on how important the role models in his life were to his success. Teachers should be acting as role models every single day.
