Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

What if your child's reading struggle isn't a disability-but a mismatch between how they're taught and how their brain works?If your bright, curious child is behind in reading, you've probably been told to "wait and see" or "just practice more at home." Meanwhile, you watch their confidence shrink and their frustration grow.Here's what most schools won't tell you: your child's brain is wired for patterns. We've been teaching them to guess.Kim Feller spent years watching smart children struggle under well-meaning but ineffective instruction. Trained in balanced literacy and the three-cueing system, she did everything she was told to do-until she realized her students weren't learning to read. They were learning to be good guessers.So she founded Feller School, Wisconsin's first school built for children with dyslexia.Through classroom stories and plain-language science, Kim shows why these children don't need more memorization or more exposure to books. They need explicit, systematic instruction that teaches them the logic of English. And she shows what happens when they get it: the same brain that made reading feel impossible turns out to be built for it.Parents will learn to recognize the early warning signs before third grade, tell effective reading instruction from the kind that sounds good and doesn't work, and ask their school the specific questions that get results.Written for parents of children in kindergarten through fifth grade-whether you're seeing the first signs or watching a fourth grader avoid books altogether.
