“Although there are dozens of research-based books on motivation among children and youth (especially the lack of it), none captures the essence of the phenomenon as accurately and practically as this one does. It's proactive — preventative rather than reactive — and enlightening. It should required reading for aspiring teachers and veteran educators alike, and is beneficial for anyone who works with young people.” Chris Holmes, Former Missouri Teacher of the Year (2015)"This is the book for you, to inspire students to love challenge, feel invited to come and learn, develop coping strategies to become a learner, feel they belong, make wise choices, and become their own teachers. After reading, I feel inspired to take on tougher challenges, even more difficult to teach students, and challenging topics." Prof. John Hattie, author of Visible Learning: A synthesis of over 800 Meta-Analyses Relating to Achievement, believed to be the world’s largest evidence-based study into the factors which improve student learning.
