This reading methods text tackles the issue of literature-based instruction versus skills-based instruction head-on and shows in very practical ways how both approaches can be synthesized or integrated in the classroom. The text is well written; reviewers and previous users are virtually unanimous in remarking how user-friendly the text is and how easy the content is for students to read, understand and follow. The book is both comprehensive and contemporary; it balances theory and practice and treats current issues like inclusion, Ebonics, technology, multiple intelligence, and the like, while at the same time addressing traditional topics like oral reading, research skills, and direct phonics instruction within the context of a literature-based program. No student preparing to teach reading and writing should be without it.
