Like me, I trust you will enjoy reading, dipping into, thinking about, following up, questioning, asking for more – as you touch this book. This is my ‘book of the decade”.

This is the book I have been waiting for. Whether you are just beginning as a teacher, or a seasoned veteran, there will be something here that will be directly relevant to your practice, and, perhaps more importantly, will make you think.

Busch and Watson have come up with that rarity: an educational must-read. I will be recommending it to every teacher I know!
