Literacy for the 21st Century: A Balanced Approach

One of the (much used) glossary pages is no longer stuck to the binding. But it was still there and otherwise undamaged. For the price, this small flaw isn't worth losing a star.

This was a required text for an Elementary Education Teaching RLA class and it's probably the most useful and easy-to-read text I've ever had. This book contains both the basics of literacy instruction as well as tons of innovative ideas and instructional strategies and much more. I really enjoyed this book and will use it in the future!

Book was listed as brand new but came with a “slice” mark thru the bottom of the binding and binding was damaged on same corner.

nada mal me ayudo mucho para mi clase de ingles

Over all was a very well written book and served it purpose for my class. My only concern about this book is the fact that after opening the book two times the pages started to fall out of the binding from the back forward.

Another relevant textbook from one of my masters classes. Gail Tompkins knows her stuff!

Just what I needed. Some of the index and glossary are not attached, but there.

Really great book for teaching reading. Lots of real-world examples, useful information, and well laid out.

I had to buy this book for a class in teacher’s college. What do you want me to say? It has a front and back cover, and there are pages. It was stupidly overpriced, because that’s the unfortunate reality of academia. Would I buy it again? Not if I didn’t have to.

Great book
