Originally published in 1957, this book presents a comprehensive
account of the factors involved in learning to read and the issues
leading to children having difficulties in this area. The text
begins by analysing what the child does during the learning
process, discussing mistakes and difficulties at each point.
Consideration is given to the relative importance of seeing and
recognising shapes and their relationships, hearing and pronouncing
sounds correctly, and understanding the meanings of words and their
phonetic analysis. This leads to a study of the nature of 'reading
disability' and its main environmental and innate causes. Methods
of remedial teaching and strategies for improving reading are then
covered. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in
the development of child psychology and the processes involved in
learning to read.
