The first edition has a blue cover and the new edition has purple on the cover. 
Having read both editions it seems they are quite similar except in the new 
edition Allington talks about NCLB and in general he seems to elaborate 
more...which may be due to newer research being available. 
 
Looking forward to the thread, Joy. Where there specific questions/thoughts you 
wanted us all to discuss?Our district book club did chapters 1 and 2 today. 
 
I cannot recommend this book highly enough!

        I'm looking at my book, and comparing it to the one online, and I guess 
I'm reading the first edition, although I think I may have the second edition 
lying around here somewhere. (Lost in the milieu of my obsessive book 
collection. It's probably sitting next to my copy of Elaine's book which I 
can't locate either!) I've been a reading machine this summer! Hopefully, I'll 
run across it as I further organize my classroom.

Did you read the new edition? I'd love to see your thread on it.

        Hey everyone,
        I just finished rereading Richard Allington's What Really Matters for 
Struggling Readers, and I have some questions for my expert friends on this 
list. I'm going to post them separately so the threads don't get too mixed up. 
(hope that's OK, and that you don't mind helping me improve my understanding.)
        
        Thanks,
