Teachers rave about A Professional DevelopmentGuide to Comprehension!
“The examples in the book are similar to what actually occurs in real classrooms. I love that Dr. Rasinski uses examples from his own classroom. He is truly in touch with the issues and struggles that teachers face when teaching comprehension."
