Then you can stop your search now. I was blessed this past Christmas when my very insightful special education coordinator gifted a copy of this book to all of our building's intervention specialists. It has been a taxing year in our building and this book was precisely the pick-me-up I needed to take on the second half of this school year with an uplifted heart and renewed vigor. Richard Lavoie's straightforward, no-nonsense manner cuts straight to the heart of motivation-based issues and offers six powerful insights into the seemingly apathetic student. One of the key elements of Lavoie's book is that it holds a mirror up to the reader and challenges her or him to take a fresh perspective on the role they are playing in the situation - for the better or the worse. This book is overflowing with helpful tips, valuable insights, and compelling real-life stories. I whole-heartedly give it a five star recommendation. Let me know how you enjoy it.
