Developing Reading Comprehension Reviews

This book is a very enjoyable read with an appealing cover of a painting of a young reader... It is a well-written, and reader friendly book. (Patoss, 1 October 2014) This book makes a very valuable contribution to the field of reading comprehension intervention and will be greatly appreciated by educationalists and speech and language therapists working with school age children.
