"Moving Mountains" by Carl Dwight Ellett is a symphony of intimate reflection and social confrontation, from the sacred hush of sunrise rituals to the ruptures of racism in a sixth-grade classroom. Ellett writes not with ink but with breath—each sentence alive, each scene pulsing with a teacher's resolve and a father's ache. This book is not merely confined to the topic of education—it's a field guide to empathy. With coarse dialogue and unfiltered classroom candor, Ellett urges young minds and adult hearts to sit in discomfort long enough to grow roots of understanding. Intersecting family, faith, race, and ritual, this book dissects division without preaching peace—it demands it. Whether undergoing student self-segregation, confronting racial slurs, or brokering fragile trust between adversaries, every chapter resounds with the truth that 'respect is not optional.' What starts as a lesson plan becomes a manifesto for human connection. And by its final page, this book has done just that—shifting perspectives, shaking silence, and echoing long after the bell rings.
