As a result of the America Reads Challenge Act of 1997, numerous tutoring programs have been established to help ensure that every child reads independently by the end of third grade. Utilizing trained volunteers from a variety of backgrounds, these programs mobilize the resources of universities, public schools, parents, and community agencies. This invaluable book describes exemplary America Reads programs across the country as well as other effective early literacy interventions, including Reading Recovery, the Howard Street Tutoring Project, and Book Buddies. Also presented are timely research studies that offer insight into the tutoring process and its effectiveness. Providing useful program planning information and training protocols, the book facilitates the productive sharing of ideas among professionals who are initiating new tutoring programs or refining existing ones.
