From the Publisher: In a period when many teachers are moving away from dependence on published programs towards the creation of their own literacy programs, they assume a great responsibility for designing appropriate instruction for the individual children in their class. To Michael Kibby, we owe a debt of gratitude for providing a conceptual organizer to guide our thinking about reading diagnosis.
