comprehensive, short on more practical elements
A great resource to be sure, but a little slim I thought on more in-depth aspects of what makes a good mentor.Focus is high on how to develop those kinds of programs, with plenty of online and print resources to find.It has helped me with my mentoring relationships as a teacher and group home worker.

This is the Gold Standard for Youth Mentoring Information
Being involved in youth mentoring programs for the past 15 years, I have developed a large, personal library of mentoring resources.This new work may cause me to downsize my library, as it really "has it all" in a concise, interesting package.In addition to covering the basic framework of mentoring, Buckley and Zimmerman also present a plethora of resources for programs of all sizes and affiliations.I plan to use the book as both an orientation tool for new adult mentors as well as part of a pre-mentoring training for new mentees. It could also serve as a recruitment tool, as the information illuminates the world of mentoring to individuals who, perhaps, know little about the concept. I recommend that if you can only afford one book on the subject of youth mentoring, this would be the one. ... Read more

Mentoring and the rites of passage for youth
This book is good enjoyed it very much. Would have been helpful if I had a teaching tool of this kind when I had two young males in my home as a single black mother. But as a director of a mentoring program I have to pick and choose what I want and can use becaues we mentor to kids of all race and teaching diversity. I would like to recomend this book to others but it is focusing on the black youth only we need help with allyouths.that has problems.and need mentors.

A Must Read
I enjoyed your book, it is a must read for the single mother.

Our youths are our futures
Our youths are our futures, and it is wonderful that someone has picked up the banner to fight for their futures.Mr. Steele, your book was an enjoyment to read.We all must understand that today's youths lack motivation.If there are mentors, and a curriculum or guide to being a better mentor, we will then produce better children and a better society.WELL DONE!!! I cannot wait to read more of your works.
