You have to trust it

You Can't Say You Can't Play by Vivian Gussin Paley is a remarkable book about what happens when the author introduces introduces a new rule into her kindergarten classroom. "You can't say you can't play" is the rule, of course, and since so much has been written about this remarkable book already, my work here is done.

Go get your own copy.

Meta-radio: The Cruelty of Children on Chicago Public Radio's This American Life. It features a reading by David Sedaris and a third act segment on You Can't Say You Can't Play by Vivian Gussin Paley. David Sedaris is usually not safe for work, which is one of the reasons he is famous.
