I just wanna be average
Mike Rose does a great job of descriptive writing in this essay. However, a little hard for me to read. I like when the story moves along a bit more. i felt like i was reading in slow motion. The comparison between " Against School " and " I just wanna be average " was pretty interesting. I took it as John Taylor Gatto was saying that everyone involved is at fault. As Mike Rose, in a nut shell said, that we are a country of average people and tickled to death about it.

I agree that the read was a little slow. It felt like I was never going to finish! I thought it was interesting to read such varied opinions about schooling, as you mentioned the comparison between the two pieces.
