From recent Amazon/GoodReads reviews: "I've read and referred to this book so many times! It is pure gold for any teacher or parent. It has been such a great tool and I am forever grateful for the knowledge that I have gained from it and utilizing these strategies!"; "I got many great nuggets out of this. There are many simple changes to the way I phrase interactions with students that have helped avoid behavior problems and power struggles. Even the simple inclusion of more choices in learning and consequences, and using questions when behaviors arise, have had an impact. It's a bit dated, especially considering the rapid state and federal changes in education these days. I also think the book could've been edited down quite a bit, because the same principles are repeated several times, with repeated details, throughout the book. Overall, worth the read and got good learning out of this."; "I am preparing to substitute teach and I found this book incredibly helpful in developing my classroom management strategy. The examples in the book may be dated, but the wisdom is timeless."
