Real Toads or Where Have All the Heroes and the Villains Gone?
Toppin, Martha Doerr
Social Studies Review, v19 n1 p10-17 Fall 1979
The author regrets the de-emphasis of the past in the social studies. She contends that students' lives are poorer, perhaps even impoverished, without an appreciation of the past and a nodding acquaintance with its heroes and villains. (Author/KC)
