“Earlier, over the summer of 2022, I read Dr. Joy's book "Joy Works: 8 Lessons for Educators" and was greatly inspired. Her short, but powerful book provided a very user-friendly outline for embracing joy in one's everyday work. She pragmatically cautions the reader stating that "it takes work for us to sustain our joy as educators" and then she lays out, using pithy quotes, activities and real life examples, a systematic way for one to take the responsibility of realizing their joy. I highly recommend this book and hope to one day have Dr. Joy do a workshop for my educators.”
