It’s shocking but true! 40% of our children are failing to master the critical skill of reading. The consequences for the children, their parents and the nation are devastating. But it doesn’t have to be this way! In her landmark new book, “The Reading Remedy: Six Essential Skills That Will Turn Your Child Into a Reader,” (Jossey Bass Publishers, February 03, 2006, ISBN #0-471-74204-X, $16.95 suggested retail), internationally recognized developmental psychologist and educator Dr. Marion Blank, explains why current reading education is failing our children and exactly what a parent should do to make sure that their child doesn’t become another statistic.
Current reading education typically teaches only one of the six essential skills of reading. Dr. Blank’s ingenious Phonics Plus Five reading system, on the other hand, is the only system available that teaches all six. And when children are taught all the required skills, they learn how to read easily and successfully. The Reading Remedy explains how and why Dr. Blank’s system works and actually gives parents access to the complete program by providing step-by-step instructions, reproducible forms, and mini-books that they can start using right away.
The Reading Remedy is available at your local bookstore, at online bookstores like Amazon and Barnes & Noble, or by calling 1-800-225-5945
