Description
Based on the premise that good thinkers make good readers, this developmental reading text emphasizes the connections fundamental to achieving comprehension. Combining critical-thinking and -reading skills, students master these relationships as a foundation on which to build additional skills. Extensive coverage of main ideas complements the strong coverage of basic skills in Part 1, and five longer reading selections in Part 2 provide students with opportunities to apply their skills.
