Biography

Shane Templeton, Donald R. Bear

"...many of these chapters report more than one study, with the conclusions of one leading the author to another. Such follow-through presents an excellent model to future scholars, making this text important for doctoral students in language and literacy....I recommend this book to those studying emerging literacy (especially invented spelling) and disabled readers' ability to learn to read words."
—Journal of Reading

"Virtually every chapter of this book begins, at least implicitly, with substantial observations from the classroom or clinic, and ends with inferences for teaching and intervention....This grounding in the real world recommends the book to those who train teachers and plan curricula, but it is also important to psychologists, at least those who would like their work to stay in contact with what really happens in schools, reading clinics, and homes every day."
—American Journal of Psychology
