 At last! A book that attempts to combine an overview of recent research findings and their implications for the teaching of reading with sensible and practical suggestions for classroom teachers. This book will be a useful addition to reading lists for those involved in teacher education.' Morag Stuart, Institute of Education, University of London, UK

'This is an excellent book. It comprehensively reviews the research literature and shows how to apply it to the nuts and bolts of teaching reading in the first few years of school. It is a must-read for teachers.' Professor Tom Nicholson, Faculty of Education, University of Auckland, New Zealand

'This is an invaluable guide and resource for early years teachers. It addresses gaps in teacher training and support in this most central and pervasive area of early childhood education. This book provides a well organised, engaging and balanced program for developing literacy skills in children in the first few years of schooling which will lead them effectively into fluent reading and writing. It offers a road map without being too prescriptive and while allowing free and creative approaches within its framework.' Professor Margot Prior AO, University of Melbourne, Australia.
