What readers are saying:
"There are so many compelling and painful stories in this book, but the one that hit me hardest, as an educator who's seen it happen, is the story of how he was thrown under the bus by the system he had served for so many years. It's the people — and their families — who pay the price. It's a devastating and important story."
— Veritable Samson, Verified Amazon reviewer, Educator ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"As an educator, this story pains me. I could not put this book down and read it in one night. It is another illustration of a broken system where excellent educators are being worn down, wiped out, and ultimately give up."
— Verified Amazon reviewer, Educator ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"Essential reading. Five stars, no hesitation. I read this through the lens of a parent, a clinical therapist, and the partner of an educator — and it left every version of me shaken in the best way possible. I've never seen it articulated with this much precision and raw honesty."
— Clinical Therapist, Parent & Partner of an Educator ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
