Review
An important study for wide academic and professional attention.--Suzanne W. Wood "Library Journal "
From the Back Cover
How severe is the literacy gap in our schools? Why does the nine-year-old child from a culturally disadvantaged background so often fall victim to the fourth-grade slump? In 'The Reading Crisis', the renowned reading specialist Jeanne Chall and her colleagues examine the causes of this disparity and suggest some remedies.
