My book just received a great review from Choice, a publishing unit of the Association of College and Research Libraries, a division of the American Library Association. Choice recommends my book for academia--this is such a welcomed surprise!

Freedom of Mind: "When students learn how to choose their own texts, they bring their personality and culture into that choice. Kids must learn how to chose their own texts based on their own questions, curiosities, goals, and desires as part of their own "becoming." (p. 68).

Broadly speaking, the research suggests that if K-12 educators truly want to help students improve
their writing, they should treat them as, in effect, apprentices to the craft of advanced literacy. https://t.co/k6tIecwGT2

A4. I'm pushing myself to go deeper into work around #socialjustice, #inclusion, #equity & do more writing & podcasts that stretch my thinking. I hope to find ways to bring more strategies to encourage critical-thinking that kids will need for their future. #BuildHOPEedu

@C_C_Krebs Ha ha. Yes, that was funny, but you are really good! This is the second time we’ve watched you, and you are memorable (even more so now) because you are sincere and very easy to listen to. Seriously, my husband and I simultaneously commented on how good you are.

"This is where equity is an issue: Kids who don't understand the thinking the teacher is asking for suffer, as do those students who stifle their own voices for the sake of a right answer or good grade." (Empowered Students, 2021)
