His insight on the simplicity of loving kids and loving what we do is inspiring and validating. It is a book that should be kept in sight so it can serve as a quick reference through its focused chapters, and will support our efforts to be the best we can be. Ryan’s book is a must for all educators, no matter their title. Whether you are a novice or have years of experience, it will speak to your teacher heart. It has certainly made an imprint on mine.
