A collection of educational notes by the famous American children's educator, Dolly Haydn.
One by one, children who struggled to adapt to the education system came to Dolly Haydn's class.
First came Boo, who stood alone in his own world.
Next was Little Lolly, smart and eager to learn, but unable to distinguish between O and L.
Then came the mischievous Tommy, who insisted on reuniting with his father, who had been tragically murdered.
Last was Claudia, a quiet and shy 12-year-old model student, yet she was pregnant.
These children had all experienced terrible tragedies, were introverted and lonely, and no one knew how to be around them.
Dolly, an outstanding teacher, refused to give up on them because of her immense love. With Dolly's help, the four children almost formed a family together, giving each other love and understanding, and stepping out of the shadows of loneliness.
