There are so many reasons I adore Dr. Debbie Silver. She is practical, funny, and always challenges my thinking. I promise after you read the new edition of Fall Down 7 Times, Get Up 8, you will be compelled to rethink your preconceived thoughts on student failure, learned helplessness, and reward systems. A great book for any educator—plus it's perfect for an entire staff.”
