Teaching Children to Read is a research-based, practical, comprehensive guide to teaching literacy in K to 8 classrooms. In an era of rigorous standards, this text provides the essential information and strategies you need to help your students develop into capable and confident readers.

The 9th Edition is based on science of reading (SOR) research to plan and deliver up-to-date, effective teaching and learning experiences.
