Whether a child is passing through a temporary crisis with current work, or has fallen weeks, months, even years behind in reading, this guide will show how a child can be brought back up to grade level. It is also useful for parents who want to give beginning readers a head start, or accelerate their children's current reading skills.

From Booklist

Anyone seeking a low-jargon approach to reading instruction will find it here. Written by the director of the National Reading Diagnostics Institute, this book offers solutions to parents or child-care workers who wish to supplement a preschool through high-school reading program in order to bring a child up to or beyond his or her grade level. It is clearly intended to support rather than supplant the classroom teacher. Linksman has successfully tested these techniques at all grade and achievement levels and shows parents how to remedy both recent and recurring problems by boosting a child's self-esteem before building his reading skills. Interested adults can learn how to diagnose a child's learning style as predominantly visual, auditory, tactile, or kinesthetic and will find games and exercises suited to each style. Additional diagnostic procedures and exercises are simple, challenging, and easily accomplished in short, daily sessions at home. The techniques here may be practical and traditional, but the book's real value is its offer of hope that the worst reading problem is solvable with time, effort, support, and a positive attitude.
