This book foregrounds the voices of women in educational leadership to draw on the power of diverse perspectives and to create an environment that better embraces a broad range of leadership styles. Chapters explore formal and informal women's educational leadership practices and examine the methods and approaches used by successful women leaders across West Africa, the Middle East, Europe, and Australia. The book examines how best to humanize educational leadership in a way that invests in the unique skills and talents that women leaders possess, and it identifies a leadership model that is situated within a range of intersecting theoretical frameworks that revolve around collective leadership, transformation theories, and community partnerships. In doing so, the book elevates education into the sphere of comprehensiveness, inclusion, equity, sustainability, and social justice. By sharing the lived experience of women leaders using a multi-perspective narrative approach, the book develops and hones exemplary educational leadership and community-engaged practices for the good of all. This volume will be key reading for scholars, doctoral students, and researchers engaged in fields such as education policy, women’s studies, and international and comparative education, among others.
The story of Cody, Le Petit Cheval Brun, came about when I was teaching French to Fourth graders. I was in need of a reader for the class but was not able to find anything that appropriately matched my curriculum. It is then that I decided to tell the students about Cody, my little brown horse. The class not only truly enjoyed the story but they were impressed by the illustrations as well (the illustrations were done by Omar Montao, my husband). I am excited to share this easy to read book. The book can be used by teachers in France as well as Teachers of French as a Second Language around the world. Its audience is for young native French speakers aged 1-5 and for French Language Learners aged 7-10. I am thrilled to contribute to the improvement of children's reading skills and enhancement of their global education. I wish all children had access to learning a second language. I am hoping that this book will contribute to that wish. Omar and I would love to publish more books about Cody and our dogs in French, Spanish and English. In the event that we gain profits from the book sales, I will use the profits to help fund the development of k-12 schools in sub-Saharan French speaking countries. Enjoy! Bonne lecture! Merci beaucoup! Corinne, Omar and Cody
