The stories of teachers who are authors of their own narratives are stories that need to be heard. These teachers listen to those they teach, trust themselves, and attend to the particular learning needs of each young child. Chanelle, Natasha, and Keisha’s research presents narratives of veteran teachers who muster patience while remaining passionate enough to sustain decades in the early childhood teaching profession. The method of indepth interviews promotes deep listening to authentic stories. The veterans shared honestly with the young teachers, identifying their excitement, missions, problems, and paths to solutions. As Chanelle, Natasha, and Keisha capture in their article, the stories collected highlight for us the outcomes of their research as well as the importance of the vehicle implemented to obtain it. It is clear that engaging in this research was a powerful experience.
