The Reading Gap: Journey to Answers (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781938620508)

A must-read for parents, teachers, and anyone interested in education, The Reading Gap: Journey to Answers is written by a former teacher who couldn't read and who later became a prominent literacy advocate. This book interweaves the author's personal story with the current state of research, teacher training, and instruction. It also addresses the uncomfortable truth about the scope of illiteracy and sub-literacy in the U.S., as well as the far-reaching consequences and devastating effects on our society. Included too is this powerful message: don't blame teachers; properly train them. The Reading Gap: Journey to Answers introduces solutions, such as Evidence-Based Literacy Instruction (EBLI), and provides an inspirational and achievable vision for the future.
