Reviews

Drawing on Indigenous theories of listening, connectedness, and equality, Sheri Rysdam and JT Torres offer a model of nonviolent response with powerful implications for teachers and others committed to empathetic engagement with writing. Striking the perfect balance between theory and practice, the book makes a compelling case for this approach to response, and its reflective prompts equip readers to undertake this valuable work.--Ellen C. Carillo, University of Connecticut
