Invaluable book to have for this grade one teacher!

I picked up your book at Costco and went back the next day for nine more. It is now required reading for every parent who has a child in my class. Many parents have said that the book not only helped them to see reading through the eyes of their child, they saw their own reading in a new light. I am a Grade One teacher and would highly recommend this book to anyone who teaches reading, especially in grade one.

If literacy is an issue in your household, get this book!

"Your book is truly wonderful and clearly illustrates some of the difficulties encountered by beginning readers as well as corrective measures, which can move them onto the right track." - Senator Joyce Fairbairn, Minister responsible for Literacy, Ottawa

Life is wonderful again in our house thanks to this book.

Brett was struggling with reading. I knew he could do it but how do we help him so he knows he can do it? That is where your book has helped us and I can't begin to tell you how things have changed for all of us. No longer is that dark cloud looming over our evenings at reading time and we now see a little boy who beams every time he reads. This has been an invaluable gift to all of our family and we can't thank you enough for writing this book.
