Charlie's Reading Rescue: Improve an Older Child's Reading

With education's emphasis on teaching reading skills to young children, older children who are not reading up to their potential are often overlooked. With Charlie's Reading Rescue, author Chris O'Donoghue, a former mathematics teacher, has created a supportive and enjoyable step-by-step course. Mr. O'Donoghue's math background helped him to structure the course into bite-sized steps, targeting instruction on the sounds of letters, focusing on words that some children find especially difficult, and using steady encouragement. Inspired by a particular student that Mr. O'Donoghue helped, Charlie's Reading Rescue is an important supplement to standard educational instruction, and has the power to change the lives of children who are frustrated with their reading skills. CHRIS O'DONOGHUE is a retired mathematics teacher. He grew up in southern England and currently resides in Ferndown, a town just inland from Bournemouth on the South Coast of England. Mr. O'Donoghue continues to assist students who face reading challenges by volunteering at his local Junior High School. Publisher's website
