Re-issues of texts published in 1977, 1982 and 1990 respectively. All three helped define an approach to children’s books, and to the teaching of reading that most of us, deep in our bones - not to mention our hearts and minds -know is the right one. Newcomers to the field should buy these books as a matter of urgency and oldcomers as a matter of practicality since their original copies must surely be read-to-pieces by now.
