“This is the place that years ago, had caught the eye of Dasani’s Brooklyn principal, Miss Holmes. She had been standing in the theme park below, squinting up, saying, ” What is that?“. Now Dasani stands at the thop of that hill, gazing down at the park. SHe sees a tangle of roller coasters and other rides, a view that leaves her awestruck. It is hard to know which site holds more power- a theme park in the eyes of of a poor child, or a palatial school in the eyes of a Brooklyn principal.”
