Summary: Outstanding - holistic - approach to teaching reading
Comment: I read the first page of this book sitting on the floor of a book store. The next thing I knew it was 30 minutes later, and I didn't want to put the book down. I knew it needed to go home with me.
Calkins takes Reading instruction, breaks it down into manageable parts that she used in her own classroom and shares with you realistic, artful and purposeful ideas for teaching reading. She speaks very openly and honestly with you as a teacher who believes in teaching reading not as a science, but rather as an art. It is an amazing book that will transform the way you think about reading instruction even in simple ways. You will love reading it and want to apply her teaching strategies immediately.

Summary: What a Sad Author
Comment: It's unfortunate that some authors use children's education as a venue for underhanded business practice. I feel that theory on education should be based on teaching experience, not (other people's experience and...) what sells. Unfortunate but true, which is why this book was read once, and left on a dusty shelf with the other duds.
Rating: 5
Summary: life-changing
Comment: I cannot say enough about this book. Teaching reading IS an art, a rocket science, and this thorough, all-encompassing professional resource elevated my teaching of reading to an art level. I constantly refer back to it. I frequently mentor student teachers, and tell them that if they can only afford to purchase one professional book, this should be the one. Lucy Calkins' work will stand the test of time. She should be a household name, and it is baffling to me that she isn't.
