Every teacher should read this book
I am a teacher and in the district I teach in we are learning about Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE's). This book helped me to understand ACE's on a deeper level and to understand the importance of our role as teachers and how much of an impact we can have. This book is not about ACE's, it's about connections and how important they are with the students who come through our door. We may know our students well, or at least we think we do, but how much do we really know about what is happening in their world? Connections with students can make a huge impact with all our students from the most engaged to the most vulnerable. Connecting with every students is what our 21st Century learners need more than anything. I highly recommend this book. Thank you Jody for you words of wisdom and for being so honest and real.
Was pleasantly surprised at the information I learned
It's not really about kids, it's about us adults and how we can connect better with kids and help them make connections. Really loved listening to the author who was both funny and super informative. I recommend highly for coaches of sports, educators and leaders in business.
Friggin’ Amazing Book
This book is wonderfully written. The author carefully explores the impact of trauma on the classroom, effective strategies to help, and wraps it up with self care strategies to prevent classroom burnout!
Loved every word
Every educator should read this one!
Dr Jody is amazing!

A must read for educators and school staff
Excellent, inspiring book. Arrived in perfect condition.
EVERYONE NEEDS THIS BOOK!
Seriously, this woman knows what she is talking about. I love the way she lays it all out for the reader (and listener - I highly recommend listening so you can hear Dr. Carrington's passion behind her purpose) - easy to understand with SO MUCH information that transforms the way we look at children. I have been recommending this book to every parent and educator I know.
Must Read
Every educator and parent alike should have this book in their “toolbox!” It was incredible and gave so much insight into the deep need for society to (re)connect!
Awesome read
Great book for educators and administrators alike. Connection before direction. Focusing on what the main thing should be in education.
