The first edition of Becoming a Literacy Leader chronicled Jennifer’s work as she moved to a new school and a new job as a literacy specialist and found herself tackling everything from teacher study groups to state-mandated assessment plans. The new edition of her book is a thoughtful, reflective evolution of her work as she rethinks how her identity and role as a literacy leader have evolved in the ten years since she wrote the first edition. She focuses on three ideas to describe her work: the concept of layered leadership, shared experiences in making meaning together, and the importance of rowing in the same direction as a school community. Jennifer firmly believes that teachers know what they need when it comes to professional development, and she describes the layers of support that coaches can implement within a school, including in-class support, curriculum support and assessment, study group facilitation, and the cultivation of teacher leadership. She provides an explicit framework for implementing these layers of coaching and explains how administrators can use the literacy leader position to build and sustain change within their schools. Literacy leaders and coaches can use this book as a road map for how to approach their work with purpose and intention. Online videos that accompany the book bring the text alive by showing readers what coaching looks and sounds like.  

“I’m trapped!” This is the cry of women everywhere who feel caught up in the busyness of life, the routine, going to work and school, helping others, supporting their families, volunteering—basically being everything to everyone. In the midst of doing good, we’ve become trapped within our own minds believing the lies that our lives are ordinary and without purpose. We resign ourselves to sitting on the sidelines of life watching others live the extraordinary. Overshadowed by the seeming brilliance of others, our self worth and value seem to vanish into thin air. But Jesus told us all to "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation” (Mark 16:15). He calls us to go, not just watch. He created each one of us for a purpose and on purpose, so we better get going! Based on six core principles, Becoming will compel you to rediscover your “Go”—and continue to become who God created you to be while regaining your sense of identity through spiritual truths and application. Becoming will empower and equip you to dream, discover, and ignite their own unique purpose. It will help you run your race with endurance and show up well as an ambassador of Christ, fully embracing your purpose as a legacy builder who will leave an imprint on the world for generations to come.

Gilded Age cities offered extraordinary opportunities to women--but at a price. As clerks, factory hands, and professionals flocked downtown to earn a living, they alarmed social critics and city fathers, who warned that self-supporting women were just steps away from becoming prostitutes. With in-depth research possible only in a mid-sized city, Sharon E. Wood focuses on Davenport, Iowa, to explore the lives of working women and the prostitutes who shared their neighborhoods. The single, self-supporting women who migrated to Davenport in the years following the Civil War saw paid labor as the foundation of citizenship. They took up the tools of public and political life to assert the respectability of paid employment and to confront the demon of prostitution. Wood offers cradle-to-grave portraits of individual girls and women--both prostitutes and "respectable" white workers--seeking to reshape their city and expand women's opportunities. As Wood demonstrates, however, their efforts to rewrite the sexual politics of the streets met powerful resistance at every turn from men defending their political rights and sexual power.
