Reviews

This volume presents valuable discussions of what are arguably the key issues in current research in the acquisition of literacy....Susan Brady, Donald Shankweiler, and their contributors are to be congratulated for their efforts in producing a volume of uniformly high quality that should be read by all researchers interested in reading acquisition....Although primarily aimed at researchers, this book is also strongly recommended to the general reader wishing to understand the theoretical basis for reading instruction emphasizing decoding skills. -The Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology
