His passion for understanding how literacy develops in children began when, after graduating from the University of Kansas, he spent six years as a classroom teacher at Apache Elementary School in Overland Park, Kansas.
Encouraged by two mentors at the University of Kansas, Tom returned to KU, graduating with his PhD degree in 1973. Since that time, he has continued to ponder and examine the notion of how it is that children become readers, and what role the home, along with the school, plays in making that happen.
This book is very simply the culmination of many years of thought and study, motivated by the belief that literacy is among the most essential foundations of success for us as individuals and as a society. It is presented in the hope that it gives parents understanding, and as a result, confidence to joyfully journey along with their children as they experience the power and joy of reading.ver menos
