"All of the suggested ideas and approaches have been identified as best practices in reading, so educators can use them with confidence in their classrooms. Equally effective as a text for preservice educators, a manual for in-service teachers, and a resource for administrators, this in-depth, accessible book will lead to sharper skills and better outcomes for a wide range of struggling learners."--BOOK JACKET.
