Revisiting Journeys reconnects us with Miriam Beloglovsky (whose wisdom we've long welcomed), and introduces us to the inspiring voice and deep thinking of Jessie Frazier. They've set ambitious goals for their collaboration and we readers are the beneficiaries of the generous work of imagination and hope that results. Miriam and Jessie have created a powerful set of principles, images, and ideas that support and encourage us to do the important work of strengthening our understanding of the relationship between play and learning and, in the process, to discover renewed energy and fresh perspective. This is a resource we're fortunate to have. It helps us revisit a journey many of us have long been on and gives us courage to keep going. For teachers just starting their journey, Miriam and Jessie offer guidance to navigate and enjoy the adventure. When teachers and directors turn to publishing houses for support in the challenges they face in working with young children and families, too often they are provided with narrow dictates standardizing experiences and limiting the quality of experience for children and adults alike. Revisiting Journeys stands apart: Miriam and Jessie's book will help adults cultivate the conditions children and adults long for, as they set off together in solidarity and awaken the possibility of joy.
