A lot to reflect on submitted by mgabbieb on June 9, 2023, 10:53am This book holds up and was a very helpful read to me as a first year teacher. There are journaling and reflection prompts all throughout the book that help you tie everything together. I would recommend to anyone that works in a "people" job.
