Critical Part of Daughter's Success in Reading

“I wanted to tell you what a wonderful book you have written. [My child] has always struggled to read and up until January she had never been reading at grade level. My husband and I read with her each night, talked with her teachers, and shopped for different “How to Learn to Read” books and tapes. From everything I read regarding early readers, if you weren’t at grade level by the end of first grade there was an 80% chance you would never read at grade level. This was a terrifying thought since [she] is very bright and excels in all other subjects.

“When Mom gave [Sound Bytes] to [my daughter] we could see the change take place over the course of the next six weeks. Prior to this time she would actually say that she just wasn’t going to be able to read. With this book she felt successful. Your way of zeroing in on a few sounds in each chapter was just the approach she needed. Also, she enjoyed reading the book. Some nights it was a struggle to get her to put the book down. Currently [she] is reading just above grade level. Thank you so much for this wonderful book. It has been a critical part of [my daughter’s] success in reading.”
