In this heartfelt collection of stories based on events in his own life, Robert Joseph explores three "playgrounds" that shaped his young life: Catholic school, the Army, and an inner-city public school where he worked as a teacher. Hailing from St. Louis, Missouri, the stories in this collection reveal the author's love for his hometown and his Midwestern roots, even as he travels to such far away places as France and Germany. Encouraging us all to find compassion within us, Bobby Joe's Recess Rebellion is part fictional memoir, part philosophy, and part politics. Above all, this book is meant to be a friendly companion for anyone in need of one during their travels through life.
