I chose this book because it's clever, clear, useful, and colorful-- a joy to look at. It's like taking a glimpse at the mind of a truly remarkable and funny artist and walking through how her creative thought process works. In my ideal world, instructional interactions would all look something like this.

After I have taught about, read about and listened to Louis Armstrong for my entire life as a student, musician, and teacher at UT, this book is a reminder of the joy and artistry of one of the greatest artists in the history of jazz.

I am a nurse scientist that studies neurodevelopmental outcomes of infants born preterm. Language directed toward infants during early infancy has been shown to improve cognitive outcomes in this population. Encouraging language exposure by both caregivers and parents is one of the research strategies I use to mitigate this known morbidity associated with preterm birth.

Wendy Mitchell's book serves as an eloquent reminder as to why I do the work that I do. Her words help to give meaning to the data collected and analyzed, presented and published. In her memoir, she beautifully shows how one can live well with Alzheimer's disease and why compassion and dignity are essential not only to interacting with someone living with this disease, but also for interacting with all of those around us.
