Teaching Reading Comprehension Processes (3rd Edition)

This book is a must for any literacy professional. I think it is one of the best books ever written about reading comprehension. Irwin's theory is as applicable in the third edition as it when first published.

A tool for teachers and students

Clear description of the reading comprehension processes with useful examples of strategies and tasks to help stududents become aware of the ways in which they can work it out and become independent and effective readers. Self- reflection sections and suggestions in the form of tasks turn this book into a must.
