Reading Strategies for Elementary Students With Learning Difficulties Reviews

"The authors have taken a huge amount of research and information, digested it, and organized it into a clearly arranged, practical, readable, and usable work. This book balances information, suggestions, and examples with reflective exercises that are practical and valuable. It also gives tons of Web sites and resources for more useful tools and tips." -- Mary Guerrette, Director of Special Education
"Provides research-based information about various reading difficulties from knowledgeable and reputable experts in the field. I appreciate the organizational features: the checklist of strategies at the beginning of each chapter, the reflective exercises throughout the book, teacher tips in each chapter, and the 'What's Next' section at the end, which is a good way of priming the brain for what it's about to learn." -- Sandra Rief, Speaker, Author, Educational Consultant
