Looking for a birthday present for my sister, and seeing as she's a teacher-in-training and an anarchist, it seemed like a book on anarchism and education might be a good idea. Any of the good folks of RevLeft have any suggestions?

Pedagogy Of the Oppressed by Paulo Friere I hear is pretty good, though it's more marxist than anarchist.
The Origins and Ideals of the Modern School is by Ferrer, who basically started the anarchist schooling movement.

Not sure if its anarchist but its a critique of schooling as it pertains to the modern economic system
