Originally published in 1992. This book brings together the work of
a number of distinguished international researchers engaged in
basic research on beginning reading. Individual chapters address
various processes and problems in learning to read - including how
acquisition gets underway, the contribution of story listening
experiences, what is involved in learning to read words, and how
readers represent information about written words in memory. In
addition, the chapter contributors consider how phonological,
onset-rime, and syntactic awareness contribute to reading
acquisition, how learning to spell is involved, how reading ability
can be explained as a combination of decoding skill plus listening
comprehension skill, and what causes reading difficulties and how
to study these causes.

This edited volume grew out of a conference that brought together
beginning reading experts from the fields of education and the
psychology of reading and reading disabilities so that they could
present and discuss their research findings and theories about how
children learn to read words, instructional contexts that
facilitate this learning, background experiences prior to formal
schooling that contribute, and sources of difficulty in disabled
readers. The chapters bring a variety of perspectives to bear on a
single cluster of problems involving the acquisition of word
reading ability. It is the editors' keen hope that the insights and
findings of the research reported here will influence and become
incorporated into the development of practicable, classroom-based
instructional programs that succeed in improving children's ability
to become skilled readers. Furthermore, they hope that these
insights and findings will become incorporated into the working
knowledge that teachers apply when they teach their students to
read, and into further research on reading acquisition.
