Publisher's Weekly Review

Healy draws on recent research in neuropsychology and analyzes educational practices as she seeks reason and remedy for the increasing lack of reading skills among the functionally literate. ``Thoughtful and provocative, this advisory offers much to parents regarding the development of their children's reading and critical thinking abilities,'' said PW.
