These stories and musing were written during author January Handl's first year as Teacher/Director at Gazebo Park School. It was a wild and transformative year, and the blessings and discomforts of "un-learning" led to insights and delights that were too rich to be kept to herself. Most of the stories were published first on the Gazebo Park School Facebook page. The comments led to connections that we in the early childhood field count on to hold us through the challenges of an often-undervalued profession. The hope is that by illuminating the magic that is Gazebo, others may be inspired in their work. May the children b e seen and heard as the magnificent beings they are!
