I starting reading several books on the subject of dyslexia to build a deeper understanding of the challenges faced by my son and to develop stategies to help him. Every book went back to quoting from the research of Dr. Sally Shaywitz. I decided to put the rest down and read the book based on her work. Though this book is not light reading for the average parent, it is information that every teacher should be familiar with.

the book is great but i can't believe text to speech is disabled with this particular book! how is someone who wants to learn how to improve their reading suppose to have access? that is one of te kindles redeeming features.

Customer Rating: 

A wonderful book whose basis on brain imaging confirms what many good reading teachers have known all along--teaching phonemes and using a multisensory approach is necessary. Her case studies were very encouraging, as were the examples of problems encountered and methods used with older students.
