Classroom LIGHTBULBS for College Professors was written to give practical teaching tips to professors. It’s for both those who are new to teaching at the university level and those who have taught for years but want to re-invigorate their teaching by implementing fresh ideas. The book is divided into two parts. The first part is about the ideas the author, Perry Binder, has gleaned from his 20-plus years as a college professor. Binder also shares how the pandemic changed his teaching. The second part is about the LIGHTBULBS acronym. There are also a large number of appendices in which Binder writes about topics ranging from interviews with master teachers to books that inspired him, and much more. The author also provides space for professors to write down their experiences as they integrate with the LIGHTBULBS acronym.
I’ve been an adjunct university professor for 18 years, which is one reason why I wanted to read this book. Although I’m experienced, there is always something new to learn. Classroom LIGHTBULBS for College Professors did not disappoint me. The book is eminently hands-on, packed with ideas that any professor can, and should, use to improve his or her classroom teaching and demeanor. I especially liked the numerous anecdotes and examples that Perry Binder shared. Any professor will be able to identify with them. I highly recommend this excellent book to both new and experienced professors, and high school teachers too. Congratulations to the author for writing an exceptional, practical, and fun-to-read book.

Me Power by LaNysha T. Adams, Ph.D. is a self-help book that delivers on many different levels. As readers, we get an immediate front-row seat in one of the most crucial moments of the author's life. A singular moment that might break others in half and discourage them from their long-term goal only fueled her desire to get to the top of her educational mountain. We not only become privy to her path to success but also the stories of many others, from their low points to their crowning achievements. Reading Me Power will leave you uplifted and inspired.
Me Power by LaNysha T. Adams is the voice in the back of your mind. The right one, the one that is educated and hears all your inner doubts and self-criticism and slays them, putting them into the deepest graveyards. The narration is a much-needed balm that alternates between intellectual dialogue with facts and quotes to being your oldest friend and confidante. Adams finds the perfect middle ground to tell her story, give us the truth, and help us to uncover our own “Me Power.” Page 86 delivers one of my favorite quotes: “You do not become who you are from one single event. You’re the product of your past, present, and future selves.” This is the perfect book for someone looking to find their true self, which in the end, is all of us. Trust me when I say you don’t want to miss out on this book!

Reviewed by Susan van der Walt for Readers' Favorite
Author Melissa Jacobus has raised two adopted children, both diagnosed with fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD), an invisible but preventable developmental disability. FASD is caused when a mother consumes alcohol during her pregnancy which can present in the child in various ways. The main factor is that FASD sufferers can fool others because they can appear credible, believable, and mature. However, adults with FASD can't make good choices due to poor judgment, suggestibility, and limited understanding of the consequences of their actions and they will always need a parent to advocate for them. In The Accomplice, we see the battles a parent faces looking out for these adult children who have the legal rights of adults but no capability in taking care of themselves, and how this legal adult status limits parental rights and the assistance they can give to those in their care.
The biggest challenge for parents and people with FASD is ignorance. The ongoing challenge of educating people about a disability that people can't see is exhausting and often frustrating when people show no interest. Melissa Jacobus faces resistance from her ex-husband who doesn't believe in FASD and thinks his children's issues are due to her poor parenting. I admire Melissa's persistence in helping her children despite their poor choices and her ongoing campaign to educate and advocate for FASD patients. The Accomplice is a valuable resource to create awareness about FASD and poses a challenge to the legal system to incorporate processes to deal with offenders diagnosed with FASD, and to get them the help they need instead of prison sentences that only create a vicious circle of criminal activity.

Reviewed by K.C. Finn for Readers' Favorite
Toward a Model of Constitutions: How Human Rights, Lincoln’s Address, and Berlin’s Liberties Explain Democracies is a work of non-fiction in the government and politics subgenres. It is suitable for the general reading audience and was penned by author Williams Kuttikadan. The book aims to provide a guide for every aspect of constitutions ranging from what they are, why they are needed, what informs their writing, and what we can learn about various countries from the constitutions they base their laws on. By basing the discussion on analyzing human rights and how those are articulated into law, the book provides a unique perspective on the tool used to define a county’s laws and values.
It seems so strange to me after reading this book that I had gotten through my life so far with such a poor understanding of something that dictates so many of the rights and liberties I enjoy every day without a moment's thought. Perhaps it is the language that Constitutions are written in, grandiose legal speak with linguistic norms from hundreds of years ago that make them feel impossible for the modern reader to navigate. But now, the modern reader has author Williams Kuttikadan, whose superbly researched and effortlessly approachable work on the subject of Constitutions is essential for every civics student. As modern social challenges seek to change the status quo into a fairer world for many, it is important to look at the documents that founded our democracies and understand what they are for and what the people who wrote them hoped to achieve. Overall, I can heartily recommend Toward a Model of Constitutions which does a marvelous job of contextualizing the sentiments of yesteryear to help us understand how to use these documents in the modern day.

School Leadership from A to Z: How to Lead Well Without Losing Your Way by Bradley James Davies is a collection of structured essays that seeks to support educators. It shares the author’s successes by drawing on the lessons he learned the hard way. As a school leader in the field of leadership, he navigates the reader on how to smooth the way and avoid pitfalls. He talks about the important aspects of the academic vocation, both personal and professional, that mold you into becoming the leader that your teacher and students need you to be. Part memoir and part school leadership manual, the book chronicles what the author describes as a professional crash-landing and the collateral relationship damage associated with it.
As a former teacher, I believe that School Leadership from A to Z is a treasure house for anyone who has ever stepped into a school environment. Davies writes with a great sense of humor, yet it is balanced with words of wisdom that educators can identify with. The way he arranges his essays according to alphabetical titles, like an educational song for preschool kids, is not only enticing but addresses the crucial factors in school leadership. Just like teachers, school leaders need support and opportunities for growth. This work provides them with authentic coaching that serves as a key to developing into stronger school leaders. Ultimately this promotes positive change in school environments to effectively drive school management. It’s a must-read for anyone concerned with education and with the challenges it presents to those who work behind the scenes.

Pay Less for College: The Must-Have Guide to Affording your Degree explains how college-bound students, as well as current students, can slash the cost of getting their degree. Authors Elizabeth Walter and Debra Thro provide many strategies to help readers make college more affordable. They include reducing the amount that families are expected to pay, finding scholarships, getting loans, accessing grants, and more. There are literally hundreds of tips. As anyone who has waded through financial information knows, it can be complex and confusing. So Walter and Thro wisely use bullet points, numbered lists, charts, tables, and graphs to explain the information. All the terminology is explained in simple terms. Furthermore, they provide many real-life examples. In short, Walter and Thro break difficult-to-understand information down and make it easy to digest. The book concludes with five appendices that provide valuable additional information and a financial aid glossary specifically targeted to the topic of finding money for college.
I wish this book had been available when I started applying to colleges! It literally would have saved me thousands of dollars. It’s not too much to say that Pay Less for College: The Must-Have Guide to Affording your Degree would have changed my life. Although the book pulls no punches about the cost of college and the difficulty of navigating the financial aid system, Elizabeth Walter and Debra Thro approach the subject with a positive attitude. They say, “You can do this.” The book is not light reading because the subject matter precludes that, but Walter and Thro did a masterful job in making it as easy to understand as possible. One fact to be aware of: just reading this excellent book isn’t going to save you money. You’re going to have to put the advice into practice. But if students and their families read this book and follow its guidance they could save thousands of dollars on college costs. I highly recommend this book.

In Connect for Classroom Success, R. Janet Walraven, M.Ed. shows her love for children and education. She understands that sometimes problems don't originate in the classroom but flow from external situations that stress children. Teachers can help by talking with family members or tutors. I liked this perspective because Walraven doesn't limit herself to teaching tips. She cares about helping children and creating a healthy environment. She also discusses taking advantage of the available time to be more productive in and out of the classroom. There are other important tasks such as grading tests outside of class time. What I liked most is that this guide provides many examples of common scenarios and suggests answers to all kinds of challenges. It doesn't matter if you have been a teacher for years or are new, because this guide will help create an excellent framework for learning.
