Customer Reviews

shipped in excellent condition

This title has earned a deserved excellent reputation. However, the publishers dropped the ball on the proofreading. The introductory section is rife with typographical errors, which is inexcusable in any professionally published work. That this is a book about literacy presents a sad irony to the reader/user. Nevertheless I would recommend this title to all language arts teachers at all levels.

Complete, concise -- a great resource!.

This is a great resource for any teacher. It covers all the basics of reading in a complete and concise manner. It condenses tons of information into an easy-to-read text. If you only have time to read one book on reading, this is definitely one to read.
