Reviews

An invaluable resource for literacy coaches and teacher educators seeking to support teachers in facilitating disruptive literacy conversations with youth! Reframing literacy coaching from reproductive to transformative, Sailors and Manning ground their work in compelling examples of justice-oriented literacy coaches and the educators with whom they work, making connections between what happens in learning spaces and the theory and research that underlies it. They invite readers to engage in their own critically reflective dialogic journey throughout the book in embedded journaling spaces, and to extend their learning through justice-oriented conversation starters. --Betina Hsieh, California State University Long Beach, USA Justice-oriented Literacy Coaching offers us a new lens in which to examine the relationship between literacy coaches and teachers. Grounded in dialogic discourse, Sailors and Manning share the practices of literacy coaches who are committed to establishing trusting and caring relationships with teachers so that they can coach to transform how students relate to texts. By interrogating the practices of compliance and the power relationships between coaches and teachers, they situate coaching as an opportunity to support teachers as they reflect on the implications that their practice has on the learners, their funds of knowledge, and their development as change makers. This book urges the literacy coaches and those who prepared them to aspire to a truly democratic interaction. --Pamela Mason, Harvard University, USA
