It can be distressing when children we care about are anxious about reading or are struggling to learn to read. We often feel uncertain about how to help. The reader who makes excruciatingly slow progress, the reader who is too worried about reading to try, the reader who sounds fabulous but who doesn’t understand what they’ve read - all of these readers can be helped if we have the right information. In short and accessible chunks of information, Helping Anxious & Struggling Readers explains the components of reading and how to support a reader who’s struggling with their confidence, skill level, or both. It is informative and pragmatic, and it’s written by an experienced reading teacher with two dyslexic children of her own.
