Reading with the Troubled Reader does a great job of helping you id how and why they struggle. Does your child lack experience with books, are they print bound, are they relying specifically on what they know about the outside world, or are they underpredicitive (forgetting to use what they already know)...time is well spent reading this book!

I am concerned because of the publishing date 1988. Does it connect to current research and practice? I also think it might be for older students. Editorial Review Product Description This is a handbook for use in identifying troubled readers and planning their recovery work.
