Editorial Reviews

This text is coming at the appropriate time as an unrelenting global pandemic continues to plague our educational institutions and our students continually toggle between remote and in-class learning, which can cause frustration and instability. As appropriately titled, this book will elevate the mindsets of students to be resilient and to know that they can persist through circumstances while learning simultaneously.
