I Was That Kid - Paperback

by Tache' Vereen (Author), Aba Bakar Javed (Author)

I Was That Kid is a powerful and reflective journey into the lived experiences of a child who was often misunderstood, overlooked, and underestimated. Through personal storytelling and practical insight, Dr. Tache' Vereen shares how early school experiences shaped her passion for advocacy, leadership, and educational transformation.

This book challenges educators, parents, and leaders to reconsider how their words, expectations, and actions impact the children in their care. With honesty and intention, Dr. Vereen reminds readers that every child has potential-and that the right support can change the trajectory of a life.

More than a story, I Was That Kid is a call to awareness, responsibility, and action.
