Good Reading for Poor Readers. 8th Edition.
Spache, George D.
This eighth edition of Dr. George Spache's book contains several hundred previously unlisted books for poor readers. The first four chapters deal with book selection practices of children and of adults for children with bibliotherapy and with readability. The remaining ten chapters are extensive annotated listings of children's books, reading materials, teaching guides, and instructional materials arranged by type: trade books, textbooks and games, series books, programmed materials, and so on. Resources for teachers of the disadvantaged and on auditory and visual perception are also listed. The appendix includes a full description of the Spache Readability Formula, an author and a title index, and a publishers' directory. (TO)
