How We Read: Why So Many Can't And What Can Be Done About It
A groundbreaking exploration of the silent literacy crisis in America and around the world, and the proven solutions that can change millions of lives
In this groundbreaking book, award-winning journalist and education expert Sarah Rose Cavanagh takes us to the front lines of the literacy crisis in America and around the world. She meets the people who are fighting to overcome this crisis, and she learns about the innovative programs that are making a difference.
Cavanagh shows us how the literacy crisis is not just a problem for the poor and disadvantaged. It is a problem that affects all of us. When people can't read, it holds them back from reaching their full potential. They are less likely to succeed in school, get jobs, and be involved in their communities.
