The book takes you on a journey through stories and passionate writing about what kids deserve from educators at all levels. It reminds us of our why as educatorswhy we do what we do. And what we can do to improve our craft. There is nothing fancy or technical to the art of building relationships, being available, listening, and if these are not working, changing the music.

Great, another leadership book! That was my first thought when I was asked to read If the Dance Floor Is Empty, Change the Song. Once I read the first few pages I was hooked; I truly wanted to dance.

A gourmet meal of insight offered up in perfect bite-sized portions. Devour it all at once like I did, or pick it up whenever you begin to doubt your role as a leader and educator in this world.
