What is Reading Doing to the Child?
Larrick, Nancy, Ed.; Stoops, John A., Ed.
Highlights from the 16th annual Reading Conference of Lehigh University are organized under the following major headings: The Voice of Theory, The Voice of Practice, and The Words of Reform. Some of the papers presented deal with the following: (1) the use of films, records, and filmstrips as a way of introducing picture books to children in communities of migrant workers, (2) the effects of current reading materials and procedures as seen by an experienced editor of children's books, (3) the teacher who puts concern for the child ahead of covering the textbook, (4) the comments of a group of children in intermediate grades on some aspects of their reading program, (5) teenagers' comments on the books they like and dislike, and (6) teenage reading interests and tastes. An index is provided. (KJ)
