IT’S OFFICIAL – THANK YOU FOR CELEBRATING WITH ME
Read, Reflect, Respond Wins Bronze in the Global Book Awards
Recognition is powerful, but community makes it unforgettable. For individuals in Maryland and DC, this message is a heartfelt thank-you from Dr. Gloria Vanderhorst, celebrating the official arrival of her Global Book Award and the shared journey behind it.
Dear Friends,
When I first shared the news that Read, Reflect, Respond had won the Bronze Medal in the Global Book Awards, I was deeply touched by the encouragement and kind words I received. Your messages, your stories, and your reflections reminded me why this work matters.
Now the certificate has arrived, making it official. Holding it in my hands is a humbling reminder of why I wrote this book in the first place—to help readers pause, reflect, and respond with clarity in their own lives. It’s not just a book; it’s a conversation, a mirror, and a gentle invitation to grow.
Thank you for celebrating this milestone with me. Your support, your reflections, and your willingness to share your own stories have made this recognition even more meaningful. Whether you’ve read the book, gifted it to a friend, or simply sent a kind note, you’ve helped amplify its message.
For those who haven’t yet explored Read, Reflect, Respond, you can find it here:
With gratitude,
Gloria Vanderhorst, Ph.D.
