"Reading Revealed is an opportunity to come back to our center as teachers. It reminds us what reading instruction can and should be: naming the artfulness in teacher talk and showing the instructional moves a responsive, active teacher takes in the classroom. We are invited to watch how everyday acts sustain readers. We see rich instruction that connects us to students and to their lives and hopes as readers. This orientation toward the humanity in each child is essential if we are to find joy in our work. You will be led to better teaching, but also to renewed purpose and hope for the creativity of teaching and learning. " --Penny Kittle, teacher and author of Book Love: Developing Depth, Stamina, and Passion in Adolescent Readers "In these pressure-filled days of expecting more, raising standards, ignoring developmentally appropriate guidelines for children, together with an increasing emphasis on testing, it is easy to understand why teachers may skim over the ' why' and rush to the ' how. ' The best teaching is responsive--knowing both why and how to shape instruction to address the needs and strengths of children. This volume draws together the thinking of a lineage of great teachers, grounded first in ' why, ' who help us to trace and understand the theoretical roots of the work they share. " --Lester L. Laminack, author of The Ultimate Read Aloud Resource: Making Every Moment Intentional and Instructional With Best Friend Books
