Becoming Literate

I am only the purchaser of the book. I will not use it.

Incredible Insight Into The Minds of Young Yeaders!

A must read for educators of emergent readers. Marie makes it clear how young readers learn and how they need to be guided through the process. She does not promote any specific program but outlines the components of a balanced approach to teaching reading. Thank you Marie!
