Summary: Well written, thoughtful, articulate, and informative.
Review: "Setting your sights on the best education for your children...HIGHER GROUND is written to help black parents chart an early course for the college education that will determine their future". As the cover clearly states, this book does just that, and more. It covers parenting pitfalls that can derail a child, financial considerations and sources for help, guidelines for finding the best schools for your child, how to help with bad grades and low test scores, and much, much more. Ms. Latimer's style is clear, articulate and easy to read. Many considerations are presented in an informal and thought provoking manner. In this way, Ms. Latimer is encouraging all consumers to tailor this book to the needs of their individual students and children. Options and choices are given in chart format as well as narrative. Ms. Latimer does not stop with just giving reasons for problems, but offers many paths to solve them. This book is a must for any parent, grandparent, educator, counselor, student or adult who is looking for information, sources for help, and the courage and inspiration to help all children pursue personal excellence.
