Not only is the author the most motivating of cheerleaders—offering high-fives throughout—she reminds us why such practices bring light to the vocation of teaching. This book is for those who have felt discouraged or overwhelmed as teachers; you will find light here.""

Without a gram of hesitation, I recommend this book to all educators."" Ken Badley, Tyndale University, Toronto, Ontario, Canada" Author InformationMichelle C.
