A collection of practical advice on effective methods of speaking to students. Much of the advice was familiar from my training as a college educator, parenting literature, and even my marketing career. But some of the advice, especially for redirecting behavior issues in young children, was quite different and perceptive. I will look forward to trying it out.

Words matters and this book proves it. (
