This handbook presents clear guidelines for promoting reading comprehension to small groups of young learners and provides exercises to help students locate, retrieve, and manipulate information.
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!.
