Learning to read is the most important task of early childhood. All parents, indeed all of us, should be concerned that the methods used to teach this crucial skill are the best possible. In this book, the author describes the findings of the most up-to-date experimental research on beginning reading instruction. However, an examination of how children are taught to read reveals a large discrepancy between the methods currently used and those which research demonstrates are the most effective. This book provides answers to some of the most controversial issues in education today.
