Publisher's summary

Teachers show up in different forms and in many chapters of a child’s life. Teaching is literacy and numeracy, but most importantly, it’s showing up with your whole heart. It’s walking kids - and yourself - through the hardest conversations about trauma, loss, grief, racism, or violence. As we work to piece together our education system in the fallout from the global pandemic, the focus must be on the teachers. If the people in charge - those teachers - aren’t OK, the students don’t stand a chance.

Dr. Jody Carrington and Laurie McIntosh bring together theory and practice, weaving the science of human development with real-life stories and tangible strategies told by those most qualified to share them - our teachers. This book is for those who need a place to land when they want to be reminded that, simply by the choice of their profession, they are a powerful force in shaping our world.

Excellent, but...

Excellent, informative, and entertaining. I am glad I purchased the physical book, as the audio book is missing a section from chapter 3 (page 61-62).

Unprofessional

I really felt the language was offensive. I felt it was about these ladies ego, more than the teachers or kids.

Adult language

I listen to the first chapter and partway into the second. I think I would’ve really liked the book, but there was too much adult language. The language in the book if it were a movie would’ve got it a rated R rating. Just in the first chapter and part of the second alone, I think there were 4F bombs. as an educator, we don’t use that kind of language language and to me it’s offensive so even though the messages might be good. The language was a major turn off, so I’m not going to finish the book.
