About this audiobook
“Gentry and Ouellette are cannonballing into the reading research pool, they’re making waves, and these waves are moving the field of reading forward.” - From the foreward by Mark Weakland, Super Spellers
The past two decades have brought giant leaps in our understanding of how the brain works. But these discoveries—and all their exciting implications—have yet to make their way into most classrooms.
With the concise and readable Brain Words: How the Science of Reading Informs Teaching you will learn how children’s brains develop as they become readers and discover ways you can take concrete steps to promote this critical developmental passage.

Masterfully narrated by Scott R. Pollak.
