Review:

"Around the world, countries are embracing early-childhood projects, opening snazzy centres and dispatching home visitors. But too many projects are of poor quality. Mr Tough shows that it need not be this way." * The Economist * "[A book] you really should read." * Huffington Post * "Packed with . . . research-based insights into addressing students' core social and emotional needs. For the past decade or more Tough has been one of the pre-eminent reporters translating education research for public consumption. His new, slim book is no exception, and it contains some surprises for fans of his previous work." * NPR * "This book upends everything we thought we knew about where grit comes from and how to get it." * Quartz * "Tough is adept at translating academic jargon into precise, accessible prose . . . Tough promotes [his argument] so persuasively." * New York Times *
