Lisbeth and Daniel Schorr have written a thought-provoking study titled Within Our Reach, Breaking the Cycle of Disadvantage. The authors talk of today's children as growing up amid poverty, despair and family disintegration. With the right amount of energy and successful programing, obstacles to progress can be turned into opportunities. "The drama of success chronicled here," writes Ms. Schorr, "is not a drama of beating the odds, it is a drama of changing the odds." Ice cream and a hot, hazy day seem to go hand-in-hand.
