The narratives offer an authentic, real-world picture of learning to lead that takes into account all those individuals most directly implicated in and impacted by leadership at the school level." -Patricia M. Jenlink, Professor of Educational Leadership

"This book reads like a story-once I started, I had a hard time putting it down. How often do we say that about a book on education?” -Loukea N. Kovanis-Wilson, Chemistry Instructor
