Reviews

As all great books do, Curriculum as Community Building introduced me to a something I hadn't thought about before-the intersections between curriculum, community, and autobiography. Smith elegantly considers several motifs, weaving, hostess, soil, in order to help us understand how to move in the world-by returning to the/ our/ a past and becoming mindful of how curriculum can serve as community building. This view is an essential way to think about how to respond to the 'narratives of estrangement, exile, and trauma,' that exist in society today. Smith's book is a must-read for those interested in community building, service-learning, and curriculum. -Jacqueline Bach, Louisiana State University
