New Book for Struggling Readers

Lots of children with special needs struggle with reading. It may be difficult because of a learning disability or a developmental delay. Reading may be difficult because of a language impairment due to a hearing loss. Are you looking for ideas to encourage your child to read? These are articles I have written about reading skills and children with disabilities:

Cave Dave is the story of a young prehistoric boy and his pet dino, Dot. Actually three stories about Dave are included in this first volume from Innovative Kids. Cave Dave is a part of the Phonics Comics series. Specific word patterns (word families) are introduced in each story. Cave Dave is written in a comic book format that will encourage even the most reluctant reader. Because the illustrations closely match the text, it provides a wonderful support for new or struggling readers.

Level I

Level II

Level III
