A.M.: This is a great text which is also easy to read. The authors do a wonderful job of balancing the concepts of balanced literacy with the science of reading. Good knowledge and practical applications for any teacher and literacy advocate to read.

aimhigh: This is a good book but the printing is inferior. The ink fades in and out from black to light gray throughout. It makes it hard to read in some places.

Lisa Sikorski: I’ve seen copies of the book and my cover is darker and shinier. Seems like it’s the same book, just looks a little different. Delivery was quick and easy.

karen adams: This is an excellent book!!! I recommend it for k-6 teachers as the understanding of how children learn to read and the misconceptions we have in teaching reading. This book is easy to read. It makes so much sense of how children learn to read and how to shift past practices to become effective in teaching ALL children to read. It is totally based on current research. It gives activities you can do with children that work!! As a reading specialist, this is the best book I have ever read that has practical, effective activities. You will not be disappointed with this. I can't wait for the next book from these authors.
