Sobre IBD

As a teacher, Mr. Watson receives letters...lots and lots of letters. When compiled together, they reflect a community's impression of a somewhat vague character who has moved into their narrow world. Yet the writers of each letter also reveal their own prejudices, opinions, worries and concerns about themselves and their world...a world that is being shaken in very subtle ways by a teacher. This collection of letters gives us a glimpse into the dreams that parents may have for their children as well as the views of some children themselves. This novella has both humour and tragedy often leaving the reader to yearn for more information about the characters who have taken pen to paper to express their objections or seek advice from Mr. Watson.
